Summary: Gory, Exciting, Great Acting
Review: A wonderfully made film, that is worth having in anyone's collection, except for those folks with little kids. Scared me at the movies, and shocked me at home. The kind of story telling that was once available in ones imagination, now alive because of todays special effects magic. Take all that away, and you still have a great cast with some unknown names. A bit too dark at times, but hey, not all fairy tales are about pinnochio.

Summary: One DVD to rule them all...
Review: A year and a half on from its release, and the Fellowship of the Ring has yet to be surpassed by any movie I can think of. This lavish four-disc set is a must for any fan of the movie, packed with involving documentries and detailed, informative technical breakdowns of the film's many spectacular visual effects. The 'Fellowship of the Cast' documentary is one such standout glimpse at behind the scenes footage and interviews...after all, with such a varied and talented cast list its hard to go wrong!Likewise the commentaries with Peter Jackson, and the cast are fun, detailed and a great way to see how this film functions as part of the trilogy. Budding techies will rejoice with an entire seperate commentary hosted by the design and production team. The film itself is presented in glorious widescreen, with crystal clear sound and picture quality...you'll be wanting to draw the blinds and crank up the volume for this one. Yup, this was terrific in the cinema, but I defy you not to tremble in your armchair when you hear that first 'boooom' from the well in Balin's Tomb! Throw in a dozen extra scenes, enough extra features to fill two discs and a handsome collectors case and you've got a DVD to be the flagship of your collection. I can only think of one DVD that may even come close...The Two Towers, released later this year. God bless you Mr Jackson.

Summary: Better than Harry Potter!
Review: About a week ago I saw the lord of the rings and it was incredible. The best movie I ever saw. It's 3 hours of non-stop action. I wanted to read the book first but I got tired of waiting. I didn't finish it but read part. Now I'm reading the entire trillogy, and can't wait for the next movie. I rate it on a scale from 1-10, an 11!

Summary: A spectacular film achievement
Review: About an hour into "The Fellowship of the Ring," an extremely unexpected thought popped into my mind: "This is a lot better than 'The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly' " -- that Sergio Leone classic being one of my guilty favorites. This movie works. The answer to the long-standing question "How could you possibly turn this into a film" is now here, and it is: "Just like this!" Book magic turns into movie magic, just as successfully as "Gone With The Wind." The whole crew threw their hearts into this movie, with wonderful results: a heart-pounding, thrilling adventure that will astonish you at every turn, and yet, at the end, you will say to yourself, "That WAS the book!" This is definitely one of the best films I have ever seen in my life. It is very, very good. Acting, visual effects, directing, everything. Hats off to Peter Jackson and the other 2,400 who made this happen!

Summary: the worst movie i have ever seen in a theater
Review: absolutely awful, the comedy is directed towards 5 year olds, the plot line is bad to the point of being funny, and the battle scenes arent even that good i almost left in the 1st 30 minutes,i found myself laughing at the parts that were supposed to make me sad and hoping that the characters would die so the movie would be over quicker

Summary: AMAZING
Review: Actually, I do not contain the words to describe how amazing the Lord Of The Rings is! Most people have probably seen it and few can say that it is no good. If you haven't seen it, it's time you do! It creates life into the books of Tolkien. I never thought it to be THIS good! While standing in the que when it opened in December 2001 I was sure that the filmmakers would ruin the books with this film, on the contruary, they did an almost perfect job, just see for yourself.

Summary: The Best Film Of 2001--Period
Review: Adapting J.R.R.Tolkien's classic LORD OF THER RINGS would prove a daunting task for even the most dedicated filmmaker, but director Peter Jackson proves here that he is more than up for the task, producing one of the most unbelievably strong motion pictures to come down the pike is some time. In a time when special effects-driven films lack character driven plots, LOTR:TFOTR scores on all counts--the special effects are simply unbeatable, the story is superbly fleshed out, and the acting is first-rate across the board. Among the cast standouts, mention must be made of Ian McKellan(robbed of an Oscar), Viggo Mortenson(given a role than finally makes use of his smoldering onscreen acting work and charisma), and Elijah Wood(so far from his child acting days and doing his best work yet). This is quite simply the best film of 2001 and arguably one of the great filmmaking masterpieces of the last half century.
