Now Other Film Has Achieved The Greatness Lord Of The Rings Has!

Rating: 10/10 (23 December 2001)

Sitting in the cinema as the trailers finished and the lights dimmed, I expected to be shaking, I expected waves of excitement to be spreading all over the audience. What was there? Nothing. But as the credits came on, and the legend of the One Ring was explained, all hell broke loose as the audience could not be contained.
"Fellowship" had been hyped up for months and I could only see two ways in which it could go - 1: It would live up to the hype! 2: It would fail miserably! Being the movie that it is, it chose a third path - it surpassed all expectations and is he greatest film of all time. If you, like myself, think watching Darth Vader and Ben Kenobi battling to the death was exhilarating, and if you thought watching the Death Star explode was amazing, you, are in for an unimaginable time watching Fellowship. If watching a classic battle between good and evil doesn't interest you, or state of the art CGI's, or superb acting on all fronts, or some of the best makeup I have ever seen, or the magnificent battle scenes then there is something seriously wrong with you - if your on medication, come off it, and if your not I recommend some!
The fact remains that Fellowship is by far the greatest movie of all time. Star Was will always hold a special place in my heart as one of the greatest movies of all time, but Lord Of The Rings is light years ahead. For those familiar with the story then everything you have imagined will come to pass, but for those who are not, you'll wish you were!
Lord Of The Rings: Fellowship Of The Ring is a masterpiece in story telling and perhaps the greatest movie of this millennium! There is something for everyone and people of all ages will sit in awe at this magnificent work of art! JRR Tolkien would be proud!
