I'm very impressed and enjoyed it immensely

Rating: 10/10 (16 January 2002)

Having read the books about 15 years ago I was familiar with the story and characters but not on a detailed level. Nonetheless I was really looking forward to seeing the film and what I saw really carried my breath away. Inspired by watching the movie, I picked up LOTR to read it again and then watched the movie a second time. It was even better the second time around because I was able to look closer at many - but still not all - the details Peter Jackson put into the film to make it as "authentic" as possible. The time and effort the filmmakers spent on that epic production was well worth it. I can't wait to see the film a third and maybe even a fourth time.... Anybody think it's possible to get the second film released earlier?
