The best movie up to date

Rating: 10/10 (24 February 2003)

When I went to the cinema to see this movie (this was on the premiere night) I had huge expectations, because I liked the first film very much and I'm also a fan of the books. And the film met up with the expectations and was even better. When I left the cinema I really wanted to see the film a second time (which I did later on), not to mention how I absolutely longed for the third film.
Why I loved the film is hard to say. I really love fantasy, especially Tolkien, and I really like Peter Jackson movies, but this isn't enough to make me give a movie 10 out of 10. I really don't know what made it so good, if it was something special or just a combination of lots of small goodies. It's simply totally perfect.
As a last comment I think it sucks that this film has only been nominated for six Oscars. Personally I think it should've gotten as many nominations as the first film (13), and it should get most of them (at least 12 so it gets the most ever). But now when it's only six, we can just hope that it gets all of those. I really hope that the third film gets more.
