Beautiful Text to Film Translation

Rating: 9/10 (16 December 2015)

This movie was an excellent form of fantasy and the translation of a book into a movie. Peter Jackson's vision of Middle Earth brings the scenery, characters, and story to life right in front of your eyes. While there are things that go off track such as the love story between Arwen and Aragorn, and the exclusion of Tom Bombadil, the movie serves as a perfect visual guide for The Fellowship of the Ring. The story is easy to follow and the scenery and CGI is breathtaking. The simplicity of these fantastical creatures is amazing. Casting goes to show how the perfect actor to bring a character to life on the silver-screen. Elijah Wood as Frodo Baggins really served as a great choice along with other whose expressions and acting really made it seem like you were there along the way to destroy The Ring. I would recommend this film to anyone who wants to see CGI, amazing actors, breathtaking scenery, or a beautifully told story.
