The Holy Grail of all films!
Peter Jackson is the dog whisperer of filmmaking! Every aspect of the film, with its numerous subplots all of which were demanding little diva's all vying for his time, talents and attention were masterfully handled, Jackson soothed the savage beasties and pulled off the most astonishing feat by delivering the most exciting, engaging, cohesive, satisfying, most beloved grand finale of all time!
Viewing this Trilogy is equivalent to participating in an Ironman Triathlon! I am physically and emotionally spent! I'm bruised, battered, and limping by the time I reach the finish line! But oh what a Glorious, Rewarding, Victorious experience this was!
