The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King [SteelBook] [Blu-ray] [2003]

One of the best all time trilogies made. Completes the trilogy for my collection. Every syfi nerd should have this in their collection.

what a great movie watched it many times and now i own it

This movie is just awesome. From start to finish. By far my favorite film of the Lord of the Rings Trilogy but that's not short changing the first two films which are also awesome. This film wouldn't be as exciting if it wasn't for the first two films so DO NOT skip to this film first without watching Fellowship and Two Towers. This is the climax to one of the greatest Trilogies ever put on film and to watch them out of order would be cinema blasphemy and doing a real disservice to yourself. I know a lot of people complained that there were "too many endings" to this film but an epic of this scope needed closure on multiple levels and you'll get that. Too many times you're left wondering what happened to certain characters or wishing you could have seen a particular scene that is only alluded to by the filmmakers. You want get that here since every single loose end is tied up. This film won a best picture Oscar and there's a reason why. The effects on the creatures and the fight scenes are all top notch, the performances from every single actor is outstanding especially Viggo Mortensen and Elijah Wood. It's so rare for the third film in a trilogy to actually deliver in every aspect possible and this film completely does that. If you love action, adventure or sword & sorcery films then this is for you. If you love movies that feature monsters and creatures getting their butts handed to them by awesome human beings then this is definitely for you. There's everything from evil goblins, to giant spiders, to massive trolls and ghosts. The ending battle is one of the greatest fights ever put on film so if you're into action this is definitely for you. Can't recommend this enough to anyone who even just like movies in general. Great, great film.

When this film came out it was somewhat bitter sweet. I love the first two LOTR so I did not want it too end. Truly a great film that well deserved the awards and accolades it received. Like my review of the first two I won't go much into the actually plot and story since most people purchasing this movie have most likely already seen it by now. Another great job by Jackson who takes us on an emotional and action filled journey that brings us to the conclusion of one of the greatest film trilogies ever made. A lot of trilogies suffer from the third movie sometimes being pretty bad compared to the first two, but not with LOTR. Return of the King is one of the best part threes of any movie trilogy and even stands on its own as a great film as well. And of course the blu ray is spectacular with its superior sound and picture quality. And I also love the steelbook which I own all three movies in the blu ray steelbook. A must own for for fans of the books and fans of great film.

This steelbook is incredible. This easily became one of my favorites in my collection. The way they used the classic dvd covers for the art is just amazing. If you’re unsure about getting it when it’s in stock don’t be. Just grab it you won’t regret.

If you've never seen any of Peter Jackson's Lord of the Rings trilogy, then it is definitely recommended that you do so. The film is based off of J.R.R. Tolkien's books by the same names, and are wonderfully pieced together. Even if you're not someone who typically enjoys the fantasy genre, I would recommend you give this a fair try. This film is the end of the trilogy, and my goodness does it deliver. The emotion is captured in a way where you'll want to stop everything else and pay close attention. Even if you know what's going to happen, you still feel the emotion and terror of how close each protagonist comes to failing... but surely they succeed... right? Well, you'll just have to watch to find out.

Now I have the complete saga in glorious Blu-ray Steelbook editions and they look marvelous displayed together on the shelf. It's common knowledge that the movie is first-rate, so I'm just commenting on the steelbook aspects. Nice cover artwork on all three movies and they compliment each other so well. I highly recommend this item!

OK, THIS FILM IS INCREDIBLE! I LOVED IT FROM BEGINNING TO END DESPITE ITS PRETTY LONG RUN AT 3 HOURS AND 20 MINUTES. THE ACTION SCENES WHERE EYE POPPING AND BEAUTIFUL. TRULY AN AMAZING AND GLORIOUS CONCLUSION TO THE TRILOGY. The Steelbook has a flat/matte finish and just as the previous Steelbooks, this edition includes a Special Features disc with archival footage of the making of the film.
