Masterpiece Far Larger Then Any Ring

Rating: 10/10 (5 January 2002)

One need not be a fan of the popular J.R.Tolkien book, nor even a fan of Dungeons and Dragons time period. This film is a masterpiece of epic proportions and very entertaining to watch. The special effects and landscape is unbelievable and the acting is solid all the way around, especially that of Ian McKellen who plays the Wizard. The only gripe I have with the film is it does leave you hanging at the end and you must wait another year to see how it continues and 2 years to see how it all plays out. The 3 films were finished before the first part was released and I feel they should have released them all within 2 weeks of each other to truly make it one of the most Epic film experiences ever created. This film now stands #1 of IMDb's top 250.
