Utter Perfection

Rating: Null/10 (18 May 2004)

Lord of the rings, some ppl dislike it, but most people love it, I fit into the category of loving it. I am a 15 year old who for the past three years has been a major fan. Enough about me, WOw...i saw return of the king 5 times in theaters, which comes to about 15 hours of my time viewing this movie. Not one action, move, character,prop or camera angle was flawed, this movie was perfect, it was funny, heartwrenching, and all together a little bit of every single genre of film combined. Let's start off with the cast. First off, Elijah Wood, best film to date, he was incredible, he is charming, good-looking, and a damn good actor, i can't think of any other actor that could have been placed in his shoes. Then there is Sean Astin, who as all of you that have seen the movie must know, brought u to tears. Every line he said and every move he made was perfect. To the part he just sat down and cried, to the part where he explains to Frodo his love for Rosie Cotton (whom you get a glance of in the Fellowship), you better damn well bring a tissue box with you, i know i did. Then there was Viggo Mortenson (i think i spelt it right?), a great performance, not his best, I thought he was better in The Two Towers, but that's just my opinion. Orlando Bloom and John Rhys-Davis were great assets to the film, and because of them, brought some funny moments, and some great special effect moves. Billy Boyd was incredible as the silly Pippin. I thought that not only does he have a lovely voice, but the fear that you see in him is so realistic it makes you get goosebumps. Dominic who played Merry, did a fantastic job, and he is everything that Tolkien described him as in the book. Liv Tyler..although not playing a major role, what she did do, in my opinion was breathtaking. She is an angel, beautiful and talented, she way she portrayed her emotions when she saw an image was so mastefully well done. It would take forever to go through the whole cast, but more or less, everything was beautifully done! To make a long story short, If you have not seen the movie, i hope that my review of it has amazed you enough to go out and rent this masterpiece which is coming out on May 25,if you still won't see it, then shame on you, i really do feel bad for you.
