A masterpiece and one of the greatest movies of all time

Rating: 10/10 (21 December 2002)

This movie is sheer brilliance. I can't believe I didn't watch it until just recently! The Fellowship of The Ring packs an incredible wallop with superb settings and designs, exciting battles, and a 5 star cast. Famous actors Ian Mckellen and Christopher Lee (One of my favorite actors) contribute timeless performances, and the rest of the cast leaves me speechless. Elijah Wood plays the main role of Frodo Baggins spectacularly, Sean Bean is cool, Viggo Mortensen is thrilling, and what can I say about Orlando Bloom? I LOVED HIS CHARACTER(Legolas Greenleaf)!!!! I also really like the guy with the big beard and the axe. Wasn't that John Rhys-Davies?
Anyways, this movie also moves well with its imaginative plot, courtesy of J.R.R. Tolkien. The Lord of The Rings will never let you escape for a second, with amazing battle scenes that feature a meagre number of battlers take out an entire army of trolls and baddies in outstanding fashion. There's also the captivating visual effects to grab you. As yet another plus, Peter Jackson perfectly illustrates Tolkien's story on the screen. So, yep. This movie is one of the greatest films of all time and is one of my most highly recommended favorites. It also gives me three important things to do: 1, read the book. 2, see The Two Towers. And 3, get this on DVD! My rating: 4.5 out of 5.
