I thought that they did as well as they could do. This is a very complicated story with a giant backstory, which makes it very hard to bring to screen. I thought the visuals were top notch, most definitely the best I had ever seen, and I also thought that all the actors put in performances that will define them for the rest of their lives. But the screenplay could have most definitely used some work.<P>I am right in the middle though of watching the extended editions of the first two movies, and one thing that I am realizing right now is that they all do fit well together. I think that even though parts of the story were not in my opinion, up to par. That it was amazing that they could keep this level of quality for three in a row. There is not a single film I like more or less. And that is the major achievement I think. It is hard to make one great film, but to make three that is almost impossible.
