Jackson feels Hollywood's pinch...

Rating: 5/10 (18 December 2002)

Watered down dialogue... Mutilated Characters... Crappy Titanicesque love story crap... Wasted opportunity...
If you love the book, avoid the film!
Perhaps along with rewriting Tolkein's masterful dialogue they should have retitled the piece as well... "The Two Dimensions"
Some real filmmaking combined with the courage to play to audience intelligence would have saved Jackson's reputation for his viewer.
Note to PJ... The pen is mightier than the Sparc workstation.
