I liked helms deep a lot, but the Amon Her battle remains the most perfect battle IMHO. Its up there with the hoth battle in ESB. Its a perfect blend of music, acting, scenery and action. And not an effect in sight so it all feels completely believable (not that the LOTR FX aren't awesome) and it all ends with the death of Boromir which is one of the best screen deaths of all time.
