gimli - such a shame

Rating: Null/10 (28 December 2002)

Awesome this movie is - yes, follows on well from the great Fellowship of the Ring - Frodo, Aragorn, Legolas etc. ever convincing great characters, realistic, the depictions of Mordor OH MY! but what ever did happen to Gimli. I'm sorry to say that the pent-up little tough dwarf from the first movie is gone and is replaced by a walking taking comic with supposed to be funny one liners and silly antics more suitable to cheap sitcoms and worthless talk shows, the Gimli character keeps bringing you back from your graphic trip to Middle-Earth and tells you this is all just a movie - that's all it is - how sad. One minute of editing could soon change everything, though. Happy new year Gimli.
