My Opinion.
I actually went to the cinema and saw this before i read the book and didn't know quite what to expect from such a movie.

J R R Tolkien's epic The Lord of the Rings is one of the most famous series of books ever written. In 2001, New Zealand Director Peter Jackson took the helm to direct the film of the first of the triolgy: The Fellowship of the Ring. It was a monumental project, with fantastic results.

While it is in existence, no one in the land of Middle-earth is safe. Hobbit Frodo Baggins and his three friends, Samwise, Merry and Pippin, embark on the quest to destroy the Ring, aided by a troop of skilled fighters and ...

Despite being rather dubious of the attention lavished upon Peter Jackson’s epic production of Tolkien’s greatest novels, I must confess to experiencing eager anticipation of this movie. I am a big fan of fantasy films, purely because the writers and creators can truly let their imaginations run riot. Despite having never properly read The Fellowship of the Ring (I abandoned ship after about fifty pages) I was assured that this was one of the finest fantasy stories ever written and that the movie would be three hours of sheer, unadulterated enjoyment. Ever the controversial one, I’m afraid that it falls to me to dispel that myth, and to explain why I found this movie so ...
