One of the Greatest Movies I have seen in a Long Time

Rating: 10/10 (21 December 2001)

What can I say this movie was fantastic! I admit I have never read the books but that is what make this movie great. One does not have to read the books to follow the story. As a history buff, I did relize to setting for the story was during the dark ages between the fall of the Roman Empire and the age of enlightment. No time in the film that this was more evident than when the group was going down the river passing the two huge statues. The similarties between the guardians and the roman legions were stunning. As far as those folks, comparing this to Harry Potter let me say this. Forget it! Lord of the Rings is by far superior.
