A wonderful conclusion to the trilogy! Though there is a lot of the ending that I had forgotten about. It keeps going on... and yet, it's appropriate. This trilogy is about the hobbits, chiefly. The story starts in the Shire, and it makes perfect sense that it also needs to end in the Shire. And I do love Serkis' narration for this trilogy! It's such a pleasure to listen to.
Moderate: War
Minor: Suicidal thoughts
