This one has it all...

Rating: 10/10 (5 February 2002)

...a great story, well-acted, and visually stunning in both location scenery and effects.
I was at first afraid the screenplay couldn't possibly measure up to the book, but my fears were unfounded. Very few liberties were taken with the story as told by Tolkien, and those lend themselves well to the screen.
Don't miss this one.
