Speechless

Rating: 10/10 (21 December 2001)

I have seen it two days ago, and I still have no words to describe it. You must see it, and you will marvel at so much perfection. The SFX are invisible, allowing a masterpiece to unravel in front of your eyes. The actors are wonderful, especially Elijah Wood (always thought he would be) and Ian McKellen. A pity that the performances in this type of movie are rarely recognized by official boards... And the settings, and the music, ant the great direction, light, costumes, make-up... And of course, the story. A special praise to Sean Astin for his portrayal of Sam. I am looking forward to see him again, allowing this great character to develop on the screen. It may sound quite cold, but it is just that I can't find the words. Go and see it. That's all. An amazed 10/10.
