    Flawless

    It's 3 hours long but never drags. It's about hobbits, elves, dwarves and wizards but feels like an epic drama. It's the first part of a trilogy but works perfectly as a complete film. It's TOO GOOD!

    I've only met one person who didn't like this film, and they were weird. On whatever level you choose to examine it, it can't really be faulted; Acting, Screenplay, Direction, Effects, big budget blockbuster or intelligent literary adaptation, there's nothing wrong with it. You've probably already seen it, so I don't really know why i'm adding a review, and i'm not saying anything original... but if, by some freak chance, you've NOT watched this yet, get it now!

    The DVD is great, too, as they've chucked about a million extras at it, most of which involves all of the main people from the film (Jackson, McKellan, Wood etc).

    Rated - 5 stars

    This is a wonderful flim adaptation of the novel, keeping as close to it as possible. It has magnificent costumes, sets, and characters,?. Frodo, Sam, Pippin, Merry, Aragorn, Legolas, Minas Tirith and Rivendell all come alive and exceed your imagination. This film made me want to read the book, which I did in only a few days.

    I would definitely recommend this film, along with the Two Towers and Return of the King to others.

    Potter named 'best fantasy franchise'

    • 17 Jul 2009

    Harry Potter is the world's most popular fantasy franchise, according to a new internet poll. As the latest installment of the wizard adventure casts a spell over movie goers, visitors to websites Moviefone and Bebo have named it their favourite - trumping Lord of the Rings and even vampire tale Twilight. Seventy-three per cent of voters chose Harry Potter, followed by Lord of the Rings with just 16 per cent, Twilight with eight per cent and The Chronicles of Narnia with three per cent. Read more
