An okay sequel

Rating: 9/10 (18 May 2003)

I have started reading "The Fellowship of the Ring" and almost fell asleep. I doubt I will ever get to read "The Two Towers", but I can already infer that this movie is so much better than its book.
It didn't have that excitement in the first movie: too much war. Violence is not something many enjoy watching, but then again there are those who do like watching it. I don't think it will disappoint anyone who has read the book.
Maybe it's just me, since my "Lord of the Rings" phase has almost completely passed... but this movie is not bad. Any Lord of the Rings fan can watch this movie and be so crazy about it it will make their hair hurt. I don't know what I just said, but I think it is now time for my rating.
8/10... okay sequel!
