Highly overrated

Rating: 1/10 (24 December 2001)

This movie failed to create excitement, at least in me. The music was boring, things happened without any logic or reason, the plot it's too simple, there are more characters than the necessary and it's too long. I'm sure there are hardcore fans of the books and the world created by Tolkien, but this it's NOT A BOOK, this is a movie.
The formula of this movie it's very simple: there are the goods, and there are the bads. The goods have a mission, they go on the road, they find an enemy or obstacle, someone "unexpectedly" comes in the rescue, that "someone" joins them. They continue on the road, they find an enemy or obtacle... etc. Three hours for telling that it's simply too much, it went out of the movie not wanting to know anything of the lord of the rings anytime in my life. I don't know, I don't understand why so much expectation about this film...
