Utterly Fantastic!!

Rating: 10/10 (2 September 2007)

Wow! what a film! when you see it first in the cinema you are like wow! and this blows you away like a full broadside.With explosive cannonballs.In a natural gas factory.First the thing that Jackson got spot on was the actors (like veterans Ian McKellen,Christopher Lee and Cate Blanchett) a well as Viggo Mortensen,Orlando Bloom and Elijah Wood and even more spot on performances.Number Two.Jackson also got the music score right with emotional music for the sad scenes,epic instrumental for the(very numerous)epic scenes and fast-paced for the(also numerous)action sequences.
Number Three.The CGI was absolutely amazing,from Cave Trolls to the Pits of Saruman.
The only problem with this was that there was no epic battles,except maybe a short but huge battle in the prologue,if you want to see lots of epic battles,see the sequels to this,they are full of them :) From the Fields of the Shire,to the hill of Amon Hen,from Elves to Uruk-Hai,i'd recommend this all the way ;) 10/10
