No movie today compares!

Rating: 10/10 (21 August 2012)

No movie that has been created to this day even compares to the awesomeness that is The Lord of the Rings. Yes, there have been amazing movies made, but no epic (which the Lord of the Rings DEFINITELY is) is portrayed as beautifully and moving as this movie is. The acting is outstanding. So wonderful in fact, that not a single character can be picked out as being the best, because they all are fantastic. The graphics are obviously the best that have been seen in movies so far, but that is not even what makes it great. Its the writing and directing that truly makes this movie astounding. You truly feel what the characters feel, and if you truly understand the story, you leave the movie with so much more than you came with. The story follows the book extremely well. Even those who cannot help but notice the inconsistencies between the book and movie should be satisfied because they are soo similar (Especially the extended versions). This movie should go down in history as the greatest epic ever made (so far).
