The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King

ActionAdventureDramaFantasy201 min

As Middle-earth braces for a final war, Frodo (Elijah Wood) and Sam push deeper into Mordor with Gollum as the Ring’s hold tightens, while far from them Aragorn faces the claim that could unite the kingdoms of men. Ian McKellen’s Gandalf rallies allies at Minas Tirith as siege, sorcery, and ancient forces close in on every front. Peter Jackson’s finale moves between the massed armies outside the city and the smaller, harsher journey toward Mount Doom, keeping the fate of the realm tied to one exhausted hobbit and the friend who refuses to leave his side.
