Good movie? Yes! Bet movie? No!

Rating: 2/10 (4 January 2002)

I almost choked when I saw that The Fellowship of the Ring was ranked #1 on the top movies list. Come on people! That is just absurd. This was a good movie, but nothing amazing. I believe that too many voters think something like this:
1) The movie is a very good adaptation of Tolkiens work.
2) The Tolkien books are the best books ever written.
1,2=> The movie is excellent.
I don't like Tolkien, but even if I did, I have to say that there is more to be required of the #1 film then to be a good adaption of a good book. It also reflects that the IMDB voting system should be reviewed.
Rating 7/10
