One of the best movies I've ever seen

Rating: 10/10 (19 August 2008)

There's no one than Peter Jackson who can translate this wonderful trilogy to a great movie. Everything just look how it has to be.
The acting is marvelous. Especially The Fellowship. The only actors that bother me were Elijah Wood(Frodo), Liv Tyler(Arwen), and Orlando Bloom(Legolas). The three just killed their roles in some way. I hated Elijah facial expressions, and Orlando and Liv just there to look beautiful, the all three just act awful. I don't think they have to give so much credit to Legolas and Arwen, because in the book-trilogy that character do nothing at all. But Ian McKellen as Gandalf, Christopher Lee as Saruman, and the others were just great.
The soundtrack was awesome. They captured the atmosphere of Middle Earth and the characters really well. I liked the most the themes for The Fellowship, The Shire and Rivendell.
The story was also captured really well. Except for the changes. I hated when Arwen became a Super Woman and saved Frodo and do many things in the other films of the trilogy. This is clear it has to be for all the whiny feminists out there, that want a Super Woman to relate to. But I don't understand why: there's is Eowyn in the Two Towers, but they didn't make the role bigger than it was in the books(maybe a little). But the story itself well captured. I liked the "competition" between Aragorn and Boromir, and how they shown the relationship between the Hobbits. The Elves(except Arwen and Legolas), the Hobbits and the Orcs were shown very well, too.
The Filming Location is the perfect place to portrait Middle Earth. The views were beautiful, and the set was just awesome(especially Rivendell).
In addition, despite all the flaws this is a great movie. Fans of the books and those who haven't read them, can enjoy this films. It helps to read the books first, so you can enjoy even more.
