Movie Review ~ The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King (2003)



These movies are exciting and romantic and violent (but not real graphic violence or I would have had to turn it off) and a story of heroes and evil and the good guy gets to win.  What more can you ask for?  The scenery was STUNNING.  The costumes were incredibly imaginative.  I just can't praise this trilogy enough.  

Stuck inside on a rainy summer day?  This may be the answer.
