ReviewsUSA Today - Visually dazzling [...] The RINGS movies are among the most breathtaking achievements in recent cinematic history, Rolling Stone - [...] FELLOWSHIP is the real deal, a movie epic that pops your eyes out, piles on thrills and fun, and yet stays intimately attuned to character, Sight and Sound - THE LORD OF THE RINGS so far stands among the best adaptations of a major work of fantasy ever managed by the cinema

    Definitely worth the price!

    Absolutely love LOTR and to have the extended versions makes it even better! Wasn't sure it it was worth buying the extended dvds but honestly it's worth it, I didn't expect there to be anywhere near as much additional content as I thought but I was wrong, there's an absolute ton of additional scenes that don't change the story in any way shape or form but still makes an amazing franchise like this just even better!

    Fantastic film set

    Great set of movies. Unfortunate that they didnt come in with the main cover on. There is some issues with the viewing quality as the frames sometime freeze or a bit skippy. Overall though I love the parts that were missed from the storyline in the standard versions. It makes the film flow and make more sense. Overall really happy.

  • A must have for Tolkien fans.

    Excellent box set, especially the extended edition with directors shots etc. If you're not a Tolkein fan yet, try it, you may be pleasantly surprised. Plenty of action, believable characters well cast. My 18 year old granddaughter and I sat riveted through all dvds. An epic few days!

  • Great entertainment, wonderful story

    Anyone who loves the story of The Lord of the Rings will love this extended film version yes I know some of the characters from the book have been left out but as a film people who have not read the book maybe encouraged to do so. The extended version explains things that the cinema film did not so the extra footage enhances the film. Each film is over 2 DVDs which is good as they are a long haul so with the break you can make yourself a cup of tea ! The clarity and sharpness of the picture and the sound quality on each DVD is very good. Each set came with 2 DVDs of information on the making of the films, which I didn't know but haven't played yet.

  • A masterful interpretation of Tolkien's greatest work.

    I'm sure that, since their release, the three Lord of The Rings films have been discussed to death! I have to say, though, that, having read the books twice, years before, the shortened versions that were shown on the cinemas missed out some vital scenes that anyone who had NOT read the books would have struggled to understand how the characters got to where they did in the films, without the benefit of seeing the deleted scenes. This 'extended' (or more complete) version enables the audience to follow this rather complex tale far more easily than they would have been able to otherwise. I rate this trilogy as one of the best 3-part films ever made - and would say that, to get the storyline properly, you MUST watch this COMPLETE edition!

  • Great adventure/action movie

    Great film based on a great book by a great author. Great is sometimes an overworked adjective, but is exactly right when describing this film.

  • A must for every LOTR fan

    I don't know why it took me almost two decades after the movie trilogy to get this box set but I'm glad I did. The artwork of the DVD covers and the DVD menus is superb. The quality of the interview footage is a bit dated but this is a must-have for all LOTR fans.
