One of the GREATEST FILMS EVER MADE!

Rating: 10/10 (17 January 2002)

If you go see this movie, you will not be disappointed!
Not only does "The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring" remain true to the events in the first novel of J.R.R. Tolkien's world famous trilogy, but the movie is made with an exceptional quality that brings out the very real and wholesome epic qualities of the book and it succeeds over and over again!
The cast and crew gave performances that were nothing short of marvellous and they should all be proud of their work in this colossal movie! Everyone who was cast shows the true and real emotions that were originally intentioned by the author, focusing on the fear, determination, treachery, evil, love, fellowship, courage, wholesomeness and stoutheartedness that should be present in such an epic as this. Of all the actors that took part in this movie, I believe that all of the actors were perfectly cast for their roles and fit perfectly!
The soundtrack was nothing short of flawless, and "The Shadow of the Past" makes "Duel of the Fates" (in Star Wars 'Episode I') sound like a lullibye in comparison! :-) It was dark and very emotional where it should be, and flawless! Inviting Enya for specific themes was a stroke of genius, and it can only be hoped that she would return to provide her magical touch for the next two movies.
New Line Cinema has a new classic trilogy on their hands, and one that is timeless! This picture is every bit as big and has just as big a following as the Star Wars genre does, and I would hope that at least one of these movies could become the most popular movie of all time! I have seen this movie no less than 13 times, and I thoroughly enjoyed it each time!

But of course, you can only form your opinion if you go and see it as well! This movie deserves 4 stars out of a 4 star rating, and 10 stars out of a 10 star rating.
If you go see it, you will not be disappointed! This movie was written and produced by fans of the greatest fantasy epic series of all time, "The Lord of the Rings", by J.R.R. Tolkien.
