The Best Film Of The Year

Rating: 10/10 (22 December 2001)

This film deserves nothing but praise and when I read the pans that some people got it really stings me. I have seen tis movie twice already and I must say: Bravo! Wonderful. I have never been more moved and happy to watch one of my favorite books brought to life. Maybe yes some minor charaters were changed but the spirit of the book., the flavour, the wonderful air of hope amoungst the rubble of n omcoming darkness are all there. The acting was wonderful. Ian Mckellen, Ian Holm and Sean Beau give wonderful fully rounded performances, but then again EVERYONE in this movie does that.. Every actor had his charcter down brilliantly. The action sequences took my breath away, Christopher Lee sent chills down my spine. It was brilliant. If it doesn't win the Oscar this year I will be really upset. I have never loved a movie this much. Barvo everyone who worked with it! You have made a masterpiece of modern cinema.
