Obviously, I'm aware of the fact that the Lord of the Rings trilogy is actually one giant movie, but since it was released in parts, that's how I'm judging them. The Return Of The King is the final chapter, and since... Full review

Story goes from where it last left off with Frodo trying to get the ring into Mt Doom and Gondor under attack. Visuals and special effects are wonderful. The best battle (at Pelennor Fields) seen since Saving Private Ryan. Lots of... Full review

In 1977, I was transported into a world of awe and wonder through the groundbreaking movie magic of George Lucas' Star Wars. Subsequently, I grew up with characters who meant something to me, and followed the story of hope, struggle, and... Full review
