A Wonderful Movie and a Fantastic looking Steebook
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!

One ring to rule them all....
What else is there to say about one of the greatest fantasy series of all time? If you haven't checked out any of the Lord of the Rings films, they are masterpieces of film-making and great adaptations of legendary books.

Instant CLASSIC. Best of the trilogy
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.
