The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King

One of the greatest films of all time. This is the masterful culmination of an absolutely perfect trilogy. There’s a reason why this film won 11 Oscars. It’s more than just a movie. It’s an unforgettable emotional experience. There’s nothing more I can say that hasn’t been said

10.0 - 2nd perfect score out of this nearly perfect trilogy. Everything done right over the last 2 films is done again. Every acting performance is flawless. Score, sound, makeup, sets, costumes, writing, battle choreo - all perfect. Best adaptations ever. Best trilogy ever. A++

“For Frodo.”

—ROTK: EXTENDED CUT—

—RUNTIME: 4 HOURSE 23 MINUTES—

That was so fucking peak, I feel so empty, as LOTR was the greatest Trilogy I ever did lay my eyes on, and not only did ROTK seal that, it blew me out the fucking water.

1st Act 10/10 (I missed the part up to Gollum talking about his precious but the first not the second one, don’t know what I missed, but clearly wasn’t that much, also, first act is peak.)

2nd Act 11/10 (Thrilling, enthralling, edge of my seat, verge of tears, twists and turns that could dry clothes with how well they are done, all that, and it’s not even the best act.)

3rd Act 11.5/10 (Up there with Parasite, 12 Angry Men and Your Name for me, like everything is excited pretty much perfectly.)

Plot 11/10 (Holy fuck, this was the best one for me right off the dome.)

Soundtrack/Score 10/10 (Made me cry, both battle and emotional ones.)

Acting 11/10 (If I listed all the actors that were beyond incredible in this, my review would be longer then there are seconds in the whole trilogy.)

Pacing 11/10 (Relentless in its beauty to portray the story at hand, I wouldn’t change a single millisecond of the pacing.)

Cinematography 12/10 (Beautiful in all senses, and I mean, every, single, one.)

Character Development 12/10 (I’ve never cared about characters more than I did in ROTK, maybe some others equally, but to the extent of how many I cared so deeply for will never be repeated and or replicated.)

Writing 11/10 (The whole Frodo battle at mount doom is so fucking well written, I’m genuinely in so much awe.)

Ending 11/10 (Which one? Nah jk, every ending felt deserved, just wish we got to hear Legolas’s last line.)

Direction 11/10 (Peter Jackson is top 3 directors without a shadow of a doubt.)

Overall
132.5/120
My Second 11/10 has come.

8.6/10

Amazing lines overall in the trilogy. Fantastic ending and every scene is unspeakable! Everyone has their parts and doing them imperfectly perfectly 👌

One of the best movies in the whole cinematic history. Many powerful scenes with emotional value. many sayings and lines that will remain in history.
