Lord of the Bling, not my thing!

Rating: 3/10 (13 August 2005)

After the NON-STOP the Lord of the Rings is excellent, Exhilariting, the best thing since the Star Wars Trilogy, i decided to give this movie a go, with all the hype and media attention some times you just have to give a movie a go, and with the excellent star cast line up Featuring, Cate Blanchett, Liv Tyler, Sean Bean, Viggo to name a few. the film was starting to sound better and better but i wish i stuck to my decision of not watching it in the end, I've never been a huge fan of fantasy movies, but i do like medieval type films, the era, the feel, the historic battles, and hearing how good the battles are in Lord of the Rings it was hard to just ignore it. I'm not sure if the main reason i didn't enjoy this first installment was the Elijah Wood factor, i think he's an awful actor, and looks really annoying, they could easily of cast a bigger and better name than him, even an unknown actor. I can see why people like the films but i do think the franchise is over rated. Maybe in time i will give these another go, but for now there's a lot more on the market.
