the end ruins the complete film

Rating: 6/10 (22 December 2001)

Before i went to Lord of the rings i checked out IMDB for reviews. At that moment the film got an average of 9.6 out of 10 , so i expected to see a high quality movie.
Indeed, the storyline is quite good.The cast and the effects are also great.
The film is however much too long. After 2,5 Hours i wished i could go home. And suddenly the movie was ended. They just stopped the film in the middle of the story, in the middle of the journey. I never read the books but understood it was a saga, like starwars. But they just can not stop the film in the middle a story. Even the Starwars films have a sort of ending. Almost all people in the theatre were very surprised that the movie suddenly just stopped and they weren't happy either.
We all have to wait until next Christmas to see the 2nd part of this story , but they will have to wait without me.
