This is one of the few movies I've seen that does justice to the book it represents. True, it doesn't follow the story exactly, but Peter Jackson did about as good a job as you can expect anyone to do in three hours. This movie is incredible. There simply is nothing to complain about. This movie has the best cinematography picture ever in cinema ...  Read the complete review

I am reading the books again and have just finished The Fellowship part, so decided to watch the film again and thought I would review it.

I get quite irate, although I fully understand that changes have to be made, but ...  Read the complete review

I have not read the books by J R R Tolkien on which these fantasy films are based as I have just not got round to it although I hope to someday.

It ...  Read the complete review

I recently had some visitors staying over at my house and, one evening, they were happily perusing my DVD collection whilst I was eating my tea, when I was somewhat startled to hear one of them say, "The Fellowship of the Ring, what's that all about then?". When I had finished choking on some cabbage, I tried my best to explain the ...  Read the complete review

I am not ashamed in admitting that I'm a massive fan of Lord of the Rings. Some might say that it's a bit of an unhealthy liking for the whole topic. I even have 'the one ring' on a necklace chain, although I did purchase that a long time ago so it isn't quite so bad. It seems only natural that I write a review on my favourite of the 3 films, ...  Read the complete review

I'm not going to waste too much time with the plot here. If you don't know it already you've been hiding under a rock for far too long. And if I tried to give any more than the briefest overview of it I'd still be typing days later. This is the 1st installment of the Lord of the Rings trilogy, and it stays pretty faithful to the book although of ...  Read the complete review

I remember when I first went to the cinema to watch this and thinking 'please don't make a royal mess of this classic book.' I didn't need to worry.

I was never all that aware of the Lord Of The Rings novels even existing back when i was at school, was always more of a Harry Potter geek i can shamefully admit.

I mean, beautiful scenery, creating a pretty realistic fantast world, ...  Read the complete review

THE PREMISE: First off, I am a huge fan of Tolkien, and have read a lot of his work, so I came to this film with a degree of apprehension as well as excitement.
