Brilliantly done

Rating: 10/10 (22 December 2002)

Peter Jackson is a wizard in his own right. Creating films is an art, and Peter Jackson has ultimately mastered that art, then has turned into a forever to be remembered artist in the film circles. I am absolutely ASTOUNDED by the epic detail and beauty of that film. I am so blown away I am almost speechless. In the movie theater I was so drawn into the perilous adventures happening that I felt almost as if I were in the film myself. Also, some parts of the books obviously had to be left out to fit this much grand detail and action into the film, but this is with all book-to-film adaptations. This is utterly one of the BEST films I have ever seen and I am going to see it again ASAP. I can't wait for Return of the King now.. I wonder how many times I am going to watch Fellowship and Towers over, and read the books over while in that wait. Well let it be known from this day forth, that Lord of the Rings is the classic movie of our time! Peter Jackson, you are a genius, the cast put every bit of effort and energy they had into it, and let's not even start on the crew who made this tale come from the books to the big screen magnificently! This film is an absolute masterpiece!
