A Beautiful start for the trilogy

Rating: 10/10 (14 August 2007)

This is a movie you wanna watch before you die. This movie is a real beauty, if you watch it once you will watch it again and again.
I think this movie has the best startup commentary among all the Hollywood movies and the voice of Galadriel here is ethereal. The depiction of Gollum's character in a shadowy manner is quite terrific. Also some of the scenes at the beginning of the movie of the battle is ecstatic in spite of the fact that this movie has mainly concentrated on fights not battles.
Here the adaptation is thorough though 3.5 hrs is not enough to capture all the intricate details like, Tom Bombadil and the escape of Bilbo Baggins from the Gollum's cave etc.
The whole movie seems majestic and it is very difficult not to like it. Let it be the Bridge of Khaza-dum,the Bree, the gates of Rivendell, the mines of Moria, etc every bit of it is terrific.
Also, one cannot forget the depiction of the Shire which looks so innocent a place and the stress on the color green is absolutely stunning. If you ever going to plan to see this movie see it now and I know you'll like it and I mean every second of it.
