A great movie in every way!

Rating: 10/10 (23 February 2002)

An all around great movie. Casting, acting, screenplay, scenery, special effects -- all are tops. Though it doesn't follow the book exactly (how could it?), it is true to the heart and soul of the book. Peter Jackson makes sure some of the little things are there even though there is no outright mention of them -- the elven cloaks given to the 8 in Lothlorien, for example -- which shows what a true labor of love this was.
