An abrupt ending for such a long film.

Rating: 8/10 (30 August 2002)

This film was compared to Harry Potter mostly because it was released around the same time and quite rightly the critics came out in favour of The Fellowship Of The Ring but it is a very different film than Harry Potter.This a Big Spectacular adventure that has some amazing special effects and a story that has you gripped for nearly three hours which is why the abrupt ending and faliure to conclude the story stops me from going overboard about this film.Why put the viewer through such a long film and make them wait a year or so to watch the story conclude? Apart from that big dissapointment the film is very good. The special affect are ground breaking (watch the dragon firework) and the acting is very good too but make sure you save a long time to watch it and dont expect a reasonable ending. 8 out of 10.
