Great, just great!

Rating: 10/10 (28 December 2001)

I'd looked forward to this movie for months, even years, though i haven't read the books. I had high expectations, and I didn't get disappointed. The one thing that is so amazing with Peter Jacksons masterpiece, is the acting. Ian McKellen, Ian Holm, Sean Bean, Christopher Lee(but not as good as in The Wicker Man) and Viggo Mortensen are just superb, especially McKellen and Holm. Though i haven't read the book, they seem like the perfect choice for the characters. The rest of the cast are very good also, and thank god that New Line Cinema had faith in Peter Jackson, no other director could have done this movie better than him. The question now is, how can Jackson do the sequel as good as this one? It seems impossible, but Lucas did it with "The Empire Strikes Back". 10/10
