Just like a dream come true

Rating: 10/10 (20 December 2001)

I've been a fan of Tolkiens books since I was about 12. I was kind of nervous about the new movies, but I like Peter Jackson movies since "Braindead" & "Heavenly Creatures". So I thought "Hey, let's give him a chance".
Then it happened - the "New Line" symbol disappeared - the movie began And about 3 hours later I had to face reality again, and it was very hard to leave Middle-Earth.
My conclusions from watching "Fellowship of the ring" are: 1. - It is impossible to make a movie exactly like "The Book" 2. - You will never see a better adaption of "The Book"
I think everyone involved in the making of the movie made a fabulous job.
It was a big risk for New Line to make this movie - I hope in the end it will pay off, because sometimes these risks have to be taken to bring movies to a new level. And this movie is definitely a new level, so everyone go watch it !
