Great Movie, But...

Rating: Null/10 (28 December 2003)

I've come to the conclusion that overall this is a trilogy that rivals the original Starwars. I also feel that the fans, either book readers or movie fans, are very happy with the movie overall. The only downside to this movie, being a book fan myself, was the ending. I was really looking forward to seeing the small battle in the shire relating to the book, for I thought that there was a large message being said in that ending. I thought that the movie kind of destroyed the message of the book the way they ended it. The other big upset was Tom Bombadil, I really liked that part of the book also but I did understand taking it out, the movie would have been another hour. Overall, like I said, the movie/movies were great and I think Mr. Jackson did a great job at portraying them as close to the book as possible. Concluding, I'll probably go see this movie about 5 more times in the theater just to catch all the small things I may have missed and to contribute my money to hopefully sinking the stupid Titanic off the number one movie standing as soon as possible Only My Opinion TM
