It's what I had hoped for

Rating: 8/10 (16 November 2007)

Ill keep this short. I wanted to see this the second I had seen the previews and finally got my chance tonight. Is it perfect? No. But really, what is today? What this movie is is a visual feast, completely illuminating your senses around every turn. It is just an awesome display of animation and effects that you won't really notice much else. The battles are breathtaking. I saw in digital 3D and I bet that if I hadn't, my vote would have been lower. The story itself you probably have read. It's basically a three part poem and that's basically what the movie is as well. The performances here were fine for this story. My only beef is that they obviously had to add their own dialogue and ideas to make this into a film, I just kinda wished they delved more into his story. He is an awesome character, there is just so much skipped that I wish I knew more about the man. Anyway, see this in 3D with some friends and you should have a great time.
