Summary: A thrilling movie!
Review: Like many good action adventure stories, the hero is an unsuspecting one. He finds himself with a monumental and very dangerous task to fulfill. Here the hobbit, Frodo (played by Elijah Woods) has the job of destroying a seemingly innocent-looking ring that is responsible for evil and the destruction to all mankind and other living beings. Along Frodo's journey, he meets all kind of foes and a fellowship of interested parties form to protect and help him complete his mission.All the characters are convincing and the film is filled with a lot of suspense. It opens with a gripping scene of battle against Lord Sauron, who wants to control that world, and his army. The movie is visually pleasing with beautiful and dark scenery - from the hobbits' village (The Shire) to the other places that Frodo crosses during his quest. At the end of the movie, the viewer is left wanting to immediately see the second part and then the third part of the trilogy. Since the continuing film versions of the trilogy are still in the making, one will have to do with watching this first part again. Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Rings will inspire you to read the book if you haven't done so before or re-read it if you already have. Fafa Demasio

Summary: As Close as it gets
Review: As a fan of LOTR for 25 years, I was very skeptical of how they could make a movie, and was also pre-skeptical. I have the books just about memorized. Never have I been so pleased. All the imagination I had about what middle earth was matched very closely to the movie. I just can't wait until THE TWO TOWERS comes out. That was the only drawback to the movie. I already knew what was going to happen. Another huge surprise was that they followed the book almost exactly. My Precious

Summary: The One Movie to Rule them All!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Review: This is definately the best movie ever made. It has absolutely no flaws. The special effects are spectacular, and they did a good job with making middle Earth look like Middle Earth. This is the first part of 3 movies. It is about Frodo Baggins who has got the one ring to rule all rings. Sauron is the villan and he is trying to take that ring from him. Frodo must journey to the Cracks of Doom which is located in Sauron's Lair! Along the way he faces Orcs, Goblins, and other things. Watch this movie over Harry Potter.

Summary: visually stunning.
Review: This expertly directed film by Peter Jackson deserves to be seen just for this man's directing talent alone. Just how talented is he? Well let me say this. I was totally engaged by this film even though I thought the depiction of the Lord of the Rings story was very average. It was more sword and sorcery than Tolkien. I thought the performances by the primary actors were very good (especially Wood, McKellen and Bloom). However, I wish the hobbit protagonists would have done a little more fighting on their own. It seems like they're riding Mortennsen's coat tails. I guess that means I'll probably enjoy the Two Towers a little more since the fellowship is now scattered and The Two Towers promises bigger and better battle sequences. All in all the Fellowship of the Ring, while definitely not a film classic(You hear me all you idiots who made this the number one film of all time on IMDB.), is worth seeing because of Jackson's directing talent, Elijah Wood's brilliant acting(best actor under 30 today bar none), and splendid effects. There should be an investigation if Peter Jackson doesn't win a best director oscar. Elijah Wood deserves at least an oscar nomination.

Summary: WOW!!!
Review: I was extremely worried about watching this movie. I have SO loved the books, and usually when that happens you end up disappointed when it's adapted to the screen. This, by far, was not the case! This has to be one of the most exciting movies ever filmed. Even knowing the plot (which the movie followed almost religiously) you're still on the edge of your seat. To me the highlights was of course the special effects and the musical score, which was just tremendous. The cast was outstanding, without a weak spot. My 14 year old daughter, who had never read the books, was able to follow the plot well and enjoyed the action, even though this isn't her type of flick. This is a movie for anyone who enjoys exciting and intense movies, even if you're not a fantasy fan. Just be forewarned: I would not take a child under 10 to this. This is not Harry Potter! The evil creatures are very scarry to young children, as witnessed by many parents having to escort their children out at certain times. The movie, at just under 3 hours, flies by and before you know it you're begging for part 2 (The Two Towers) to start. I don't know if I can wait until next December.

Summary: Too Much To Say
Review: After seeing this movie for the first time on opening day, (i've seen it 5 times and couting..) i was breathless. This movie was absolutly amazing. Before it came out, i was scared that it was going to be horrible, but it was completely the opposite. Just the way they made Middle Earth, it was pretty much perfect, at rivendell and lothlorien, i wanted to be there. The acting was also superb, especially Ian McKellen's performance of Gandalf, he WAS Gandalf. And while they did cut out and change a few things (like Tom Bombadil) this movie was still amazing, i think it's one of the best ever made. I'm really excited for the next installments, i see it that i likde the second book better then the first, so i'm hoping the second movie is amazing also, but for right now, just take in the awe that is Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring.
*By the way, invest in the soundtrack, it is astounding!!

Summary: Silver Teaspoons
Review: All right, so the young hobbits are really fanatical about the movie. I can see why. It's dramatic, showed a great deal of them as extras, was full of adventure, and was directed well. The only problem was that I wasn't in it.

Summary: Greatest Movie Ever!!
Review: So far I've seen this movie nine times and plan on going back for more. This is, without a doubt the greatest movie ever made. It dose a wonderful job of keeping with the book and makes the right condenses where they're needed (the beginning). The addition of Arwen's role is accebtable enough though not entirely necessary. Over all this movie is fantastic. The next two are sure to complete the greatest trilogy in the history of film. Don't miss this one in theaters because watching it at home won't give you nearly the same effect. Here's hoping it takes all 13 awards it this year's oscars!!!
