the world of Tolkien

Rating: 9/10 (6 November 2002)

This movie's really done it... For me it started with a board-game. I never heard of Lord of the Rings before a year and a half ago. The game was the trigger. Reading a summary in the game-manual got me curious of the book. First reading 'the Hobbit' followed by this really thick book: 'The Lord of the Rings'. I Only just started to read and getting into the book when I heard about a movie... Reading 'the Hobbit' makes the movie even more fun... I recommend you read that book first. Tolkien managed to make me believe in his world with words... Peter Jackson has done it with the movie. Truly a masterpiece...
