An Unexpected Journey
Some brilliant moments set the stage for a phenomenal tale, but it's the bum notes that will be remembered.
Middle-Earth
From the West Farthing to the Sea of Rhûn, anything that is directly (or indirectly) connected with the lands of J.R.R. Tolkien's imagination.
Desolation of Smaug
Mirkwood, Lake Town, and an awesome Smaug make for an epic adventure
Return of the King
The epic conclusion to the greatest trilogy. It doesn't just stick the landing, it smashed it into another universe. One with elves, and orcs, hobbits and wizards.
Rings of Power
It may deviate from the source material, but it does so spectacularly, weaving an epic tale filled with the spirit of Middle-Earth, even if it lacks the facts.
The Battle of Five Armies
Had everything it needed to be great and then just takes the concept of overkill to a whole new level.
The Fellowship of the Ring
The incredible start to an incredible trilogy. Still hits hard.
The Hunt for Gollum
An amateur yet heartfelt and true expansion of the epic tale, with some surprisingly solid practical effects.
The Two Towers
One of the greatest battles put to film, combined with an incredible middle chapter of the story. Phenomenal.
