A flawed masterpiece

Rating: 9/10 (20 December 2001)

There may be niggling details I would have changed, but taken as a whole this is the finest piece of epic filmmaking that I have ever seen. Particular favorite moments included Gandalf and Frodo's conversation in Moria, Boromir's swordwork with Pippin and Merry, and the fight with the Cave Troll.
