One does not simply not watch LotR

Rating: 7/10 (19 April 2020)

Let me start of by saying the amount of world and character building in LotR is unlike any other fantasy series. There is so much to this fantasy world, with many interesting characters; from monsters to hobbits.
This is the first time I am watching a LotR and I am definitely not disappointed, however I did have higher hopes for this. In general the film didn't really grip me so well as I thought it would. The acting was really nice, the scenery and fight scenes were wonderful, but yet it was hard at times to keep my attention to it, hence the not so high rating. That doesn't take away that I did enjoy watching this film quite a bit, and look forward to the next parts.
I recommend this film to anyone who hasn't seen it yet and is interested in fantasy, combined with quite a bit of action.
