One of the best ever. Don't argue.

Rating: 10/10 (1 August 2009)

Every one of Lord of the Rings films are captivating. THe first one is one of the greatest films ever. Every Lord of the Rings film makes my list. Like with most of the Potter films. The Potter films have something in common...they're amazing. Peter Jackson is one of the best directors ever. I wish he would come back. He's done great films like King Kong and The Frightners, but he should be proud for The Lord of the Rings. The first Lord of the Rings is the least dark of the three. Though it is a very dark film. It's starts off with the cute hobbits living in the shire. Within ten minutes or so, it shifts gear and goes to total darkness. The story to the film is too complex. I prefer this over Narnia... but who wouldn't? THe trilogy has a great cast. Including Elijah Wood as Frodo Baggins, Ian Mckellan as Gandalf, Liv Tyler as Arwen, Viggo Morgenson(close enough) as Aragorn, and many others. THe lord of the Rings trilogy lasts for over nine hours. MOst people can't sit down for that long and watch these elves and hobbits save middle Earth. I personally don't care.
