Jacquie and I went to see Return of the King yesterday afternoon with some friends. I'm glad the series is finally over. As usual, I think this Lord of the Rings movie was just too bloody long and could've easily been shortened by a half hour or more. Some of the battle scenes were a little too drawn out. They could've been cut shorter and not had any significant impact on the story.
Overall, though, I think this last LOTR film from Peter Jackson moved along at a quicker pace than the first two. By this point, the actors seemed to have their characters down a little more, and even the director seemed to learn from the post-production of the other two. While the movie still wasn't great, I think it was better than the first two movies.
