We saw it yesterday and I give it a hearty "not bad." There was some good epic battle stuff; Viggo and Sean were outstanding; Eowyn was kick-ass; and Legolas and Gimli warmed my cold nasty heart.

There was some not so good stuff: what was the point of having Arwen in there; some of the CGI sucked; I wanted to throttle Elijah by the first third of the movie; Karl Urban grimaced and did weird eyebrow thingies too much for my liking (he was much better as Caeser in Xena); the final 30-45 minutes of the movie needed to be hacked off.

Also, Frodo and Sam: gay much?

In terms of ending the trilogy, all they really needed to show was Aragorn's coronation and the hobbits' return to the Shire. IMNSHO.

The audience I was in didn't clap until the appropriate time, but there was some fidgeting. And a toddler, as T has mentioned.
