Overview

As armies mass for a final battle that will decide the fate of the world—and powerful, ancient forces of Light and Dark compete to determine the outcome—one member of the Fellowship of the Ring is revealed as the noble heir to the throne of the Kings of Men. Yet, the sole hope for triumph over evil lies with a brave hobbit, Frodo, who, accompanied by his loyal friend Sam and the hideous, wretched Gollum, ventures deep into the very dark heart of Mordor on his seemingly impossible quest to destroy the Ring of Power.​

Viewing Notes

Another of the cruise flicks I managed to catch piecemeal over the course of the day it was on repeat on television.  Still an amazing film although I’m starting to spot some of the rushed effects work I didn’t catch on repeated viewings years ago. I may have annoyed the others watching this when Samwise picks up Frodo near the end by chanting “Rudy! Rudy! Rudy!”
