Good movie leading into the LOTR trilogy.

I give this movie an 8.5/10. See my full review (spoiler free) at http://totemsoup.com

I thought it was a really good movie. Lots of interesting and exciting action.

A surprisingly refreshing two hours in the Lord of the Rings series. This was the movie that "Return of the King" should have been at the end. Peter Jackson has done an exceptional job of turning the last third of this trilogy into an action sequence that for once deserved to have its very own movie. I thoroughly enjoyed it.
