Review For The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King |
Standing out amid an excellent cast is Elijah Wood, stymied by tweeness in the earlier films but here convincingly developing the character of Frodo as the embodiment of valor and self-sacrifice. Andrea Gronvall-Chicago Reader
Pops your eyes, excites your senses and brings you in as close as a whisper for scenes of startling emotion. Peter Travers-Rolling Stone
As I watched this film, an eager victim of its boundless will to astound, I found my loyal memories of the book beginning to fade. Anthony Lane-New Yorker
Not only has Jackson boldly and faithfully brought J.R.R. Tolkien's world to life, he's created the most epic and sweeping fantasy adventure of all time. Bill Muller-Arizona Republic
Completes the picture, magnificently so, and all honour and praise are due the visionaries behind the project. Peter Howell-Toronto Star
The thrilling conclusion to what has become the film event of our time -- the definitive screen fantasy -- features more spellbinding moments, bigger battles, more emotion and more poetry than the terrific first two films in the trilogy. Roger Moore-Orlando Sentinel
Rousing, satisfying and awe-inspiring, The Return Of The King provides a worthy conclusion to what is both an incredible cinematic achievement and the finest fantasy filmmaking ever to grace our screens. Stephen Carty-Flix Capacitor
The spectacle is ramped up here more than in the preceding two movies combined. Tim Brayton-Antagony & Ecstasy
It's the brief glimpses of unsettling ordinariness -- ho-hum drug dependency, the joy of scoring a good plumbing job, the downsizing of a factory to two lone, lonely figures -- that gives Return its real punch Chris Cabin-Filmcritic.com
When I met the barefooted scruff [Peter Jackson] two years ago, he regretted he'd never been to Birmingham to see Tolkien's inspirations at first hand. Graham Young-Birmingham Mail
An insurmountable amount of extras comes second only to New Line Home Video's stunning visual and audio transfer of Peter Jackson's exhilarating and exhausting epic. Chris Cabin-Slant Magazine
If this wasn't quite the best movie of 2003, it was definitely the most fun to be had at the movies all year Jay Antani-Cinema Writer
Excellent, but much violence and scariness. Nell Minow-Common Sense Media
'The Return of the King' wins my respect for closing the show in such high style. (Blu-ray Extended Edition set) John J. Puccio-Movie Metropolis
...every bit as grand, as imposing, as jaw-droppingly awe-inspiring as anything in the first two episodes. (Extended Edition) John J. Puccio-Movie Metropolis
All hail to the King. Cole Smithey-ColeSmithey.com
This is a masterpiece of filmmaking and Jackson truly deserves an Oscar. Felix Vasquez Jr.-Cinema Crazed
A tale of heroes, bonded together by friendship, it's the very special friendship between hobbits Elijah Wood's Frodo and Sean Astin's Sam that touches us most of all. Urban Cinefile Critics-Urban Cinefile
A lot of it is just hacking and slashing on a mammoth scale, which is still just hacking and slashing. Rob Gonsalves-eFilmCritic.com
This is a filmmaker in the grandest tradition of the word. Joe Lozito-Big Picture Big Sound
An absolutely absorbing finale which establishes the trilogy as perhaps the best mythic fable ever brought to the big screen. Kam Williams-Princeton Town Topics
No flabber has been left ungasted by Mr Jackson's mighty battle sequences, nor no gob unsmacked. Peter Bradshaw-Guardian [UK]
