The best movie of 2001

Rating: 10/10 (20 January 2002)

This movie was simply, the best movie of the year. When I heard the reviews for the movie becoming increasingly good all over the place (being a fan of the original trilogy of books) I could hardly control my excitement. Then the night that I went to see it, it hit me that my expectations might exceed the film. When the movie was over however, it was the movie that exceeded my expectations. The movie put in one word is "spectacular." Throughout the entire movie I was on the edge of my seat. Even though I knew what was going to happen at every seen, I was always surprised. I had decided prior to watching the movie that if I liked it I would wait for all three of the movies to come out before I bought them. When I stood up after the movie I couldn't wait to see it again which wasn't good because I didn't want to have to get it to watch it again. So, I went to see it again about three days later to get it out of my system. About ten days later and four watchings of the movie, I still can't wait to see it again. I loved the good characters and hated the bad ones. I cared what was going on, and not once through this three hour and fifteen minute movie did I look at my watch or talk or find myself bored. WATCH THIS MOVIE!
