Summary: The Best
Review: This is easily my favorite movie of all time, and I've been alive for over 30 years now. I will never get tired of watching this. Lose ends are tied up nicely in the extended edition. A real treat. The battle scenes are some of the most amazing ever. The director outdid himself. Bravo!

Summary: Great movie!!!!
Review: I'm no Lrd of the RIngs fan, but when I saw this version of the film, I thought it was way better than the orginial theatrical version! This is one of the greatest DVD sets ever released, with lot of commentaries and a ton of special features on the second disc.

Review: Lord of the Rings is by far my favorite movie. I can't really like the movies separately as they are all part of one story. So they are all equally special. The books were brilliant and the movie brought its magic and heroism to life. Peter Jackson mastered the most complex story ever told into the span of three films. While a great task, I am somewhat envious. If I could turn back time and work on a movie set, Lord of the Rings would definitely be it. To the reviewer, Daniel Udell from Pennsylvania on the review "Bored of the Rings". I thought your review was hilarious even though I completely disagree with you on the ratings. I suppose films like these seems to ring true for those of us who are most in touch with our inner child and imagination. You can expect nothing less. But to each their own. Hail Peter Jackson for his masterpiece that will forever be a cinema classic for many generations.

Review: These films will be remembered forever as the greatest trilogy besides Star Wars. Every shot in the movie is breathtaking. THe Battle of Helm's Deep is one of the greatest battles ever to be filmed. The only battle more magnificent is the one is The Return of the King. I have watched everything on all 4-discs and i am very pleased i bought this DVD. It was worth every penny. If you ever look at the screen and wonder how they did that the answer is somewhere on the DVD. I also must mention how the sountrack to this film is beautiful.

Summary: Don't Get Sucked Into All The Hype!
Review: Lord of the Rings is bad, and each movie is even worse than the last! Why is it getting all these awards and nominations is beyond me! I guess there are two kinds of people; the kind of people that CAN'T LIVE WITHOUT LORD OF THE RINGS, and people that CAN'T STAND LORD OF THE RINGS, I, myself, am one of those people that can't stand it, but you could be either, so my advice is.....
RENT IT FIRST!!! But please, don't get sucked up into all the hype, hence the title of my review. If you haven't already queerly fell in love with LOTR, don't bother to watch it. Please take my warning seriously. I know what I'm talking about. Save yourself!

Review: The number of extras in this DVD in really stunning. They cover every aspect of the production from Gollum to settings to warriors of middle-earth. i bought this DVD as a natural and instinctive step on my way to complete my Tolkien collection. However I must say that the long string of adjectives in the DVD title is well-earned. Right from the packaging there is a sense of exclusivity that makes this a really good experience. I also like the the extra scenes, and i wish they had put the faramir scenes in the movie to show the hidden virtue of his character. Some scenes don't really fit into the mood of the film, so i can understand why they were cut, but Peter Jackson's conceptualization of Middle-Earth is so stunning that i don't even mind.

Review: The Two Towers picks up where Fellowship left off and didn't leave any quality filmmaking behind! Peter Jackson is a brilliant director achieving what many thought (including Tolkien himself) was impossible-adapting these books into films. These are more than just films though, they are masterpieces that, like the books, raised the bar within their medium. Top notch film! It should be illegal to not see these movies at least once!

Summary: Marvelous Middle Movie
Review: I loved the Battle of Helm's Deep. When Legolas and Gimli arrive at Helms Deep, they discover they are desperately short of manpower, and when Aragorn arrives and tells of the thousands coming to defeat them, all but these three are filled with despair. Then help comes, from an unexpected source. Now, with slightly more manpower, Helm's Deep awaits attack. The orcs come, and take their places. Aragorn gives the word, and the army releases their arrows. So the battle begins. On the good side, many people, dwarfs, and elves are killed, and on the evil side, many orcs are killed. Men are shown falling off Helm's Deep's monstrous wall to the ferocious orcs below, while orcs are shown being cut apart by the swords of the warriors on the good side. In the end of the battle, when Helm's Deep's defending army finds itself outnumbered, Gandalf comes with another army, and the orcs are destroyed. Another fascinating part of this movie is the battle between the talking trees and Saruman's army. A talking tree is taking Merry and Pippin back to the Shire. One of them suggests that they take a longer route to get there. While on this route, this tree sees the destruction that befell many of his kind. He howls in rage, and also to get the other talking trees to join him. Together, these trees throw enormous boulders at a dam holding water back from flooding the grounds where orcs were produced, and at the orcs themselves. While some of the trees are set on fire, the orcs succumb to the power of the trees. For battle excitement without gore, don't miss this movie!

Summary: Long, but Worth It
Review: The battle scenes seem to go on forever, as I suppose they did in real life; Gollum is both scary and pathetic; the Orcs are just plain scary; and Hugo Weaving shows he can do much more (as an elf yet) than hiss, "Mr. Andersonnn," as he did as Agent Smith. The movie cuts back and forth a lot, so you'll have to pay attention. I didn't the first time I watched it, and I got lost.By the way, the talking trees are hysterical.
