I've Never Watched A Movie In The Same Way

Rating: 10/10 (3 November 2016)

The Lord of The Rings: Fellowship of The Ring has been nominated for 13 Academy Awards - and there is a reason why. There hasn't been a fantasy novel film remake this good since Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone. In fact, I think it's even better. The Fellowship of The Ring has always been my favorite movie since I first saw it 10 years ago.
In this film, a group of comrades made up of dwarfs,"hobbits", elves, and men band together to destroy the ring of power, an evil ring that has the capability to bring down the entire world when possessed by it's owner, Sauron. They must travel a long journey to Mount Doom, the only place the ring can be destroyed.
I'm not sure how the creators did it, but I've never seen a film that captured my attention like this one. This movie will make you want to jump into the terrible situation the characters face and join them: Gandalf, Legolas, Aragorn, Gimli, Sam, and Frodo. Director and Producer, Peter Jackson, really is the best at grabbing his viewers attention and allowing them to experience the same emotions as the characters. When The New York Times reviewer, Elvis Mitchell, wrote an article on this film, he explained that the 165 minute movie may feel a bit long for viewers. However, I disagree with this, mainly because the movie easily captured my attention for all 165 minutes, beginning to end. I give this movie an A+.
