The Lord of the Rings: Return of the King

A remarkable end to a remarkable series of films, the journey of Frodo, Sam and Gollum is the pièce de résistance of the trilogy. The tension-filled journey forces both Gollum and Sam to show their true colours as Frodo suffers under the burden of the ring. All around is war as Aragorn fights to reclaim what is rightfully his. Jackson’s vision is awesome. The Return of the King is some kind of beautiful, some kind of masterpiece. Unmissable.
