Sean Astin talks more about his talent than any of us could...yet...if this was his BEST performance...huh...imagine that.

Sean Astin was wonderful - truly epitomizing the true character of Sam. Astin was the best of an extremely phenomenal cast.

In the books, Sam is a simple gardener that eventually becomes the epitome of bravery and friendship. Sean Astin captured him perfectly.

Sean Astin has just the right look, and is so believable in his performance as the ever-loyal Sam.

He was far and away the best actor in the trilogy...

Everyone was great in this movie, but Shean Astin really blew me away as far as acting the part.

Sean Astin...man he is too great for words. He and Elijah Wood pulled this trilogy off with no flaws. Frodo and Sam's friendship is so amazing. And Sean's performance was absolutely stunning. He's one of my favorite actors, that's for sure! Too bad he didn't get an oscar. We'll send him a special Mithril award! :D

When the Oscar nominations were coming out, there was a buzz in Hollywood that Sean Astin would get a nod for his portrayal of Sam. I was especially moved by his performance in the last film, as he showed himself as a real friend and became a different kind of hero. It was disappointing that Sean was overlooked for the Oscar, but he's really proven himself as an actor and I'm sure he'll have more important roles in the years to come.

I remember watching Sean Astin in small roles here and there back in the 80's...I always thought he had great potential...especially considering his bloodline. His mother, Patty Duke was a wonderful actress and still is, and Sean Astin obviously caught her acting genes...I hope this movie will help him get better roles as his talent shows no bounds...EXCELLENT !

Pretty good actor. I especially liked him with John Favreau in Rudy. Does a good job here as well.

There is no denying Sean Astin's fantastic acting in these three films. He completely personified Samwise Gamgee for me-every aspect of his performance displayed how the books portrayed him. It's in Return of the King however, that he really shines, definitely deserving an Oscar nod. One of the best of the cast!
