Not for me

Rating: Null/10 (1 February 2002)

Screen adaptations of famous books sometimes add to the reading experience and sometimes they don't. For me this one definitely belongs in the second group. I didn't like it much and I won't be watching Parts 2 and 3 of the Tolkien trilogy. Elijah Wood as Frodo is the biggest disappointment. Much too effeminate. Far better to form your own visual impressions by reading the book.
