A cinematic masterpiece...

Rating: 10/10 (27 January 2002)

Having waited a while for all the hype to die down, I entered the cinema not knowing whether the wait was going to be worth it or not.
Well, the wait was definitely worth it - a stunning cinematic masterpiece; majestic, sweeping, exhilarating and sometimes moving.
Sir Ian McKellen's Gandalf is deserving of a major accolade and the rest of the cast performance was impeccable as were the special effects, cinematography and sound-track
****1/2 out of *****
