Uninteresting

Rating: 1/10 (5 February 2004)

This was one of the most anticipated movies, ever, and this is also the first movie I have ever seen that had required 3 sittings to go through, because I feel asleep twice. The point of a movie is not to set up the scene for subsequent movies, rather, to move along the story and not dwell on the same themes over and over again. Yes, we knew the wraiths can find the ring, yes, we knew Aragorn was the king and he didnt really want to be king but he needs to be king. Yes, we know gandalf kicks ass, yes, we know that the lure of the ring is great and it can corrupt easily and blah blah. How many times can the SAME themes be repeated over and over without being boring?
