The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King (2003)
94%
4/5
EDIT
“Even if part three, The Return of the King, hasn't quite the satisfying thump one would like of a conclusion, Jackson's trilogy has ascended the summit of the Fantasy premiership from which the likes of Star Wars are a speck in the distance.” –

Amélie (2001)

EDIT
“By the end even Tautou's unassuming presence has become slightly maddening. Why this infantilist tripe should have stormed the French box office is a mystery, though one can be certain its promoters hope for it do the same over here. You have been warned.” –

“This teen comedy is terrific. Superbly scripted by Saturday Night Live head writer Tina Fey, it explores the viciously divisive cliques that render the American high school a virtual battleground. ” –

“Andrea simply doesn't have the comic nerve or timing to carry it off, and the look of his film is horribly drab - little wonder when most of it was shot in the Isle of Man and Wales, neither of them a convincing stand-in for Oregon.” –
