  • The Best this Trilogy has ever looked or sounded!
    I was pretty late getting on the bandwagon for this new 4k release, I had looked at other people's reviews for them (it is very bipolar) and figured that I would give it a shot. I actually got the extended trilogy on 4k digital on a sale that VUDU had almost a year before I ever got the physical media ($30), although I hadn't watched them through except for a few scenes here and there just to get a glimpse of how they looked (seemed good to me, but that's not really a good example). After I finally got the physical media (again on a sale for about $50), I decided to actually give them a watch through to see what all the fuss was about (extended editions of course). I was very happy to see that the green tint that plagued The Fellowship of the Ring on the Blu-ray edition was gone, the detail also got a very nice upgrade. In terms of detail, I'd say that the Fellowship might be the most detailed of the three, but the Two Towers and Return of the King are still the best they have ever been and are amazing. You can really make out the texturing on clothing, the pores in people's faces, and some of the cool New Zealand landscapes (I do hope to go there someday). With the new 4k resolution, there were times that the CGI seemed a little out of place, but I didn't think that it really deterred from what else was on the screen that much (nothing like the original trilogy of Star Wars. I really wish George Lucas would release the despecialized editions). I have also noticed some DNR that others have mentioned, but it didn't seem to be that much to me (some said it was like T2, no one looked like Barbie dolls to me so I don't know what they were looking at. The new 4k Star Wars editions also come to mind). I also liked that they used so many more costumes and practical effects for the LoTR Trilogy unlike the Hobbit Trilogy, it just made everything seem more realistic (shooting on film rather than digital can also have something to do with that). The new Dolby Atmos track was pretty stellar, it was great to hear what was already a great track to begin expanded to height channels, hearing rain and arrows coming from above was exhilarating. You could also hear voices echoing between each of the speakers better when the characters were in either the Mines of Moria or in the caves above Minas Morgul. The subwoofers had a pretty good work out too, the scene with the Balrog, or the drums from the orcs are always cool. Dialogue was never hard to hear (Tenet, I'm looking at you). Hearing Howard Shore's orchestral track is always treat. I have not watched the movies in Dolby Vision yet, only standard HDR, but even that was pretty impressive. The one thing that I did wish that was included was the Appendices that were on the original extended DVDs, it would be nice to see how Peter Jackson created this world in an updated format (even if that were standard Blu-ray), especially for those that never had them to begin with. I do find it a little odd that only the 4k versions are included and not also the standard Blu-ray, but that is something that I can deal with. I have loved this world that Tolkien created and these movies since I was a little boy and these additions have made me appreciate them even more. While I do believe that the books are better (please read them!), these movies will always hold a special place in my heart, especially with how well they were handled even if there were some things cut (The Hobbit Trilogy was a pretty abysmal adaption, though the J.R.R. Tolkien Cut of the film was pretty good since it removed all the unnecessary material that was never in the book and made it one 4 1/2 hour film rather than three 3 hour films). If you are 4k capable and have a 4k player, get these, it is the best they've ever looked and sounded, and they look better than a lot of other 4k movies out there.
  • Would recommend
    As of November of 2025, works in US. Full 4k UHD. Many people forget that Lord Of The Rings wasn’t shot in 1.78:1. So theres black bars. Other than that excellent. It has Dolby TrueHD, excellent quality.
  • 100% worth the buy!
    Let me start the same way I did reviewing the Hobbit 4K set, if there was ever a series that needed to be in 4K it’s the Middle Earth series! The visuals are incredible, the sound is crisp and clear! I’ve seen a lot of bad reviews about the condition of the cases they came in, and yes they are flimsy and mine arrived somewhat damaged, but I just took the 4K discs and put them in the regular DVD case that i already had, simple. As far as playback issues, I ran into only 2 and they were very minor and easily remedied. The Fellowship of the Ring, both discs played perfectly fine with ZERO issues. The two towers, the first discs main menu wasn’t showing properly and it did get stuck at the final minute and a half or so, but that turned out to be more of an issue with my player than the disc itself, because I put the disc into my PS5 and the issues went away. The Return of the King, both discs played perfectly fine as well with no issues at all. All three films looked and sounded fantastic and I highly recommend getting this set.

    I use a Panasonic 4K player, with a Yamaha 5.1 sound system, and a Samsung 4K smart tv. I’ve found the best set up to get the best experience from 4K, was to put the picture mode on Natural, make sure the contrast is all the way up on the TV settings (and dvd player settings if applicable) put the sharpness about halfway up, brightness at zero, and backlight at max. Your set up may differ, play around with the settings to get the best from your viewing environment and enjoy!
  • Good movie for your money
    The real thing, no cheese low quality movies.

  • Epic LOTR Trilogy in 4K!
    Many positive things have been said about the classic books, and the movies that follow that epic, classic path. I loved both the books and the movies. I'm not a technical nerd here, I know only what I see! The look of this film is so amazing and beautiful. And the brilliance of the actors in this movie! It is a well-cast film, with stellar performances all around, especially from the very underrated performances of Elijah Wood and Sean Astin. And in this awesome 4K transfer, everything from the scenic views of New Zealand, the CGI effects and the action look perfect. The film was very deserving of all the Oscars and other awards it has received. I also have all three of the special extended DVD editions, with all of its wonderful extra "Appendices". There are no extra features or Blu-ray discs in this set. Also, it would have been better to have packaging similar to this DVD set--it looks like a classic novel and opens up with disc holders that keep the discs separate from each other and they don't fall out like the ones in this 4K set do.
    This set comes with both the theatrical and extended versions of the LOTR Trilogy on 4K and it has never looked better!
