This was literally, THE BEST MOVIE I have EVER SEEN!!!! (Which is saying a lot, since I have seen A LOT of movies). I'm so glad that I went on opening day...I just wish that I could have watched it again immediately after the first viewing. The movie truly does the book justice! The actors were right on...I don't think anyone could have done better in any of the roles. The cinematography was absolutely breathtaking...truly beautiful. Middle Earth came alive! I didn't even know it was 3 hours...when the credits rolled...I wanted more! The Ring-Wraiths...truly terrifying...one of the most terrifying group of villains that I have ever come across. I can't even tell you which actors were the standouts...Elijah, Orlando, Viggo, Liv...ALL OF THEM...were absolutely amazing in their roles. The movie was perfect...absolutely perfect. You could tell so much heart went into the making of this movie...you could feel it in every spoken line, in every sweep of the camera. It may sound sacreligious...but it was better than Star Wars. Doesn't that make you want to see it?! EVERYONE SHOULD SEE THIS MOVIE!!!!!!I'm going to see it again...and again, and again, and again...until the next one comes out.
