I recommend them to anyone who's looking for a good time. The power of the speech- "There may be a day, when the strength of men fails, but that is not this day..." It's just incredible how Peter Jackson was able to capture this trilogy. Although not totally similar to the books, still incredible movies in their own right.

4.0 out of 5 stars Impressive, Mar 23 2004
