The third entrant in the Rings franchise is its worst yet. Critically the film earned a measley 6% on Rotten Tomatoes. Financially you could still call it a success, earning $83M worldwide, but that’s almost half of what the previous film took at the box office. You’ll find 20 minutes of deleted scenes and around a half an hour of featurettes included in the Blu-ray package.

Lasse Hallström’s film overcame poor reviews and some manufactured controversy to post decent box office returns. Backed by a strong international showing, the film fetched $185M worldwide on its reported $22M budget. The film is a safe choice for families to enjoy while weathering some May showers. The home video package contains deleted scenes, outtakes, and two featurettes.
