Where's Bombadil?

Rating: 8/10 (8 September 2002)

This is a good movie. Notwithstanding the fact that the wonderful Tom Bombadil and the scary barrow-wights were left out entirely, I enjoyed every minute of the film and did not want it to end. The scene in the book where the party stumbles onto the stone trolls that Bilbo mentions in his spooky story to the children in the beginning of the film would have been a nice touch, too. Visually beautiful and fun to watch. I rarely watch films twice, but I will certainly see this again. This is a good movie.
