review from a non-fanatic

Rating: 5/10 (27 December 2001)

According to the voting, this is apparently the top movie of all time. I have to strongly disagree with that. To say that this movie is superior to films like the Godfather is an outrage. It is in fact entertaining, but if you're not into fantasy books the story is a little "weird" at times. Don't get me wrong, the visuals are gorgeous, and the action is good. It just left me with a so-so taste in my mouth. Good, but nothing special.
