I think they are films that have to be seen in the cinema. I quite enjoyed them there when the visuals and music washing over. Seeing them on a very small screen over the past few Saturdays they haven't really held my attention. Some good moments I went and cooked and did washing up rather than watch the battle scenes. The costumes are still good and some of the performances but the CGI hasn't aged well and the scaling is really bad at times.

I can't understand why the listing claims there are too many goodbyes though since all but the grey havens were eliminated.
