| Welcome to the Now Playing Reviews Database where
you can find our opinion of films which have had a cinema release in the UK.
Each of these movies are reviewed from a gay perspective, giving them
both an overall star rating plus our exclusive gay rating. The more stars out of a possible 10, the
better the film; similarly the more pink triangles, the greater the gay interest. A full list of
all our reviews appears below, and this week's current films are found on the Now Playing Main Page.
Most films are now available for rent on DVD and we recommend ScreenSelect who operate an efficient online rental service by post with no late fees and you can keep up to 3 DVDs for as long as you like. If you'd like a film permanently in your DVD collection, then the best prices are normally found at Amazon. | |
The Lord of The Rings: The Return of the King Movie Rating:  Holiday Treat
| |
|
Frodo (Elijah Wood) and Sam (Sean Astin) reach the end of their journey in this,
the final and best installment of the trilogy. The story? It's a long, complicated
one, but, in a sentence, two little hobbits are sent on a mission to save the
world from the terrible, destructive power of The Ring.
In this chapter, their attempt to destroy it at Mount Doom is the catalyst for a gigantic battle between Good and Evil for the future of Middle Earth - a fight in which the spectacular special effects never crowd out the heart-wrenching emotional climax. It's a perfectly balanced epic, one that will thrill you for its entire 200-minute running time. So take an afternoon off, settle in, and enjoy this holiday treat. |
