Editorial Review:
Description:
This critically acclaimed epic trilogy follows the quest undertaken by the hobbit, Frodo Baggins, and his fellowship of companions to save Middle-earth by destroying the One Ring and defeating the evil forces of the Dark Lord Sauron.
Amazon.com:
As the triumphant start of a trilogy, The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring leaves you begging for more. By necessity, Peter Jackson's ambitious epic compresses J.R.R. Tolkien's classic The Lord of the Rings, but this robust adaptation maintains reverent allegiance to Tolkien's creation, instantly qualifying as one of the greatest fantasy films ever made. At 178 minutes, it's long enough to establish the myriad inhabitants of Middle-earth, the legendary Rings of Power, and the fellowship of hobbits, elves, dwarves, and humans--led by the wizard Gandalf (Ian McKellen) and the brave hobbit Frodo (Elijah Wood)--who must battle terrifying forces of evil on their perilous journey to destroy the One Ring in the land of Mordor. Superbly paced, the film is both epic and intimate, offering astonishing special effects and production design while emphasizing the emotional intensity of Frodo's adventure, and ends on a perfect note of heroic loyalty and rich anticipation.
After the breaking of the Fellowship, Frodo and Sam journey to Mordor with the creature Gollum as their guide in The Two Towers. Meanwhile, Aragorn (Viggo Mortensen), Legolas (Orlando Bloom), and Gimli (John Rhys-Davies) join in the defense of the people of Rohan, who are the first target in the eradication of the race of Men by the renegade wizard Saruman (Christopher Lee) and the dark lord Sauron. Fantastic creatures, astounding visual effects, and a climactic battle at the fortress of Helm's Deep make The Two Towers a worthy successor to The Fellowship of the Ring, grander in scale but retaining the story's emotional intimacy.
With The Return of the King, the greatest fantasy epic in film history draws to a grand and glorious conclusion. The trilogy could never fully satisfy those who remain exclusively loyal to Tolkien's expansive literature, but as a showcase for physical and technical craftsmanship it is unsurpassed in pure scale and ambition, setting milestone after cinematic milestone as Frodo and Sam continue their mission to Mordor to destroy the soul-corrupting One Ring. While the heir to the kingdom of Men, Aragorn, endures the massive battle at Minas Tirith with the allegiance of Legolas, Gimli, and Gandalf, Frodo and Sam must survive the schizoid deceptions of Gollum, who remains utterly convincing as a hybrid of performance (by Andy Serkis) and subtly nuanced computer animation. Jackson and cowriters Fran Walsh and Philippa Boyens have much ground to cover; that they do so with intense pacing and epic sweep is impressive enough, but by investing greater depth and consequence in the actions of fellow hobbits Merry (Dominic Monaghan) and Pippin (Billy Boyd), they ensure that The Return of the King maintains the trilogy's emphasis on intimate fellowship and remains faithful to Tolkien's overall vision. By ending the LOTR trilogy with noble integrity and faith in the power of imaginative storytelling, The Return of the King, like its predecessors, will stand as an adventure for the ages. --Jeff Shannon and David Horiuchi

Though the image shows this as a boxed set it is not. These are the most basic widescreen recordings of these great movies in individual DVD packaging. The 'special features' discs are included and the packages are sealed and brand new.
I've seen the quality of the director's cut special edition DVD's and that is better than the quality of these recordings.
All in all, these are a very good value for the money. They arrived safely, are brand new and work perfectly.

The set is great for the price but if I had it to do over I would have spent the extra money and gotten the extended edition.

'The Lord of the Rings' movie trilogy, especially the extended edition, is the best thing that has ever happend to the world of fantasy-cinema. Being a committed fan to the world of Tolkien, I couldn't wait to finally own all three movies in this fascinating saga on DVD. I own both the theatrical released DVDs and Extended Edition DVDs of 'The Lord of the Rings' movie trilogy. I'd recommend both versions to any Tolkien fan for the special features and scenes in both editions. It was once said that ... Read More

The DVD's are a gift for my husband, who hasn't watched them yet, but they arrived in good time and in good condition.
Thank you for your service!

The Lord Of The Rings - The Motion Picture Trilogy (Widescreen Edition)
Excellent movie for a price that can't be beat. I looked all over town (a very small town) and couldn't find it. Amazon had it for a great price. Three days later I was watching it. I will be visiting Amazon a lot more often.
