Advantages: Great story

Disadvantages: Nothing

Very rarely does a film manage to capture the magic of a good book, but Peter Jackson did and outstanding job with his Lord of The Rings trilogy. Featuring a classic battle between good and evil, Frodo Baggins finds himself burdened with the One Ring, which has a frightening owner - The Dark Lord.
Baggins begins his adventure in his hobbit hometown of the Shire, and heads off with his Gardener and friend Samwise and two other hobbits. As the adventure becomes more complicated and dangerous, the Fellowship is formed which includes the hobbits, Gandalf the Wizard, Aragorn and others dedicated to destroying the ring.
Overall this is a fantastic film and a great beginning to the trilogy. The battle scenes are well produced and the film features some great effects. It would have been impossible to get all of the descriptive content of the books into the films but Peter Jackson managed to capture the essence perfectly. Watching this film will leave you begging for more, and guess what? It gets even better.

Summary: A must see
