Summary: My comments of the best movies!
Review: The best movie that I liked is lord of the ring. It just reminds you that friendship can always last forever, and that we should help each other no matter what.For me it isn't only because it's popular and that everybody in the world liked it.The best part is when Sam keeps an eye on Frodo, that he wants his best friend to be alright. Elijah Wood is very good at actor it made me cry and he managed to talk much and remember, everybody likes Elijah Wood and me to its like he got faith in himself. The worse part well that is a little hard cause i dont think it has something wrong. It was a little scary when orches came, it felt like real. Everybody was great, even Legolas is wonderful.
Everybody is beutifull, lovely and good actors.Many hugs to Elijah Wood and everybody!

Summary: The best movie of the decade!
Review: This is by far the best film I have seen in the past ten years of my life! I cannot remember a 3-hour film that I have seen in the theatre 3 times being any better! The scenery, characters and customes bring the audience deep inside the mind of Tolkien's world and you are never able to leave!

Wonderful performances from Sir Ian McKellen, Elijah Wood, Orlando Bloom and Sean Bean raise this film to the top of my "all-time best movies" list.

This is a definate thrill ride and a wonderfully fantastic film that everyone can enjoy and appreciate. See this film in the theatre for the 13 Academy Nominations they well deserved including Best Picture, Cinematography, Custome Design, Sound, Director and much much more!

This is the one film I have seen that deserves to win all 13 Oscars! Absolutely Fabulous!

Summary: Simply Marvellous!!!
Review: Lord of the Rings was a great movie, It just drew me back to the theatre five times before forcing myself to wait for the video. I have become one of the biggest Lord of the Rings fan, and am proud of it. This movie is just filled with lots of action and adventure and it just makes you feel as if you are a part of it. I truly enjoyed watching it, but most of all I truly enjoyed watching Legolas Greenleaf (Orlando Bloom) in action. He was very cute with his long blonde hair, but the thing I like about him the most was the way he was with his bows. It was amazing to see him shoot his arrows, He never missed!! Well I would truly recommend this movie to all the adventure seekers. You can't go wrong watching this movie.

Summary: A reveiw By Tolkien's biggest fan
Review: I thought this was a great movie. The thing I liked most adout it was the apperance of things, such as Khazad-Dum which looks like a Lee drawling(he's the guy who illistrated the book). They really bring Middle-Earth to life! I do wish however there had been more of Tolkens songs, and would have kept in the part about Tom Bombadil ande Goldberry, the river daughter.
I liked the sudden ending alot. Now people will have to read the book to know what happens to Merry and Pippen before next year!
Legolas was GREAT!!!

Summary: LOTR FOTR: The Best of the Best
Review: This is the best movie I've seen in a looooong time! The graphics are amazing. They shouldn't have left out Tom Bombadil and Glorfindel, though. Other than that, it's very good. I've seen it four times already. I can't wait 'til it comes out on video. My friends and I are going to see The Two Towers and Return of the King the first day they come out. We're all so excited. Peter Jackson found the perfect actors for the parts. Elijah Wood, Viggo Mortenson, Billy Boyd, Dominic Monaghan, Sean Astin, Sean Bean, Ian McKellen, Orlando Bloom, and John Rhys-Davies to name just a few of the most excellent group of actors in a long time. This movie is a classic already!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Overwhelmingly fabulous, start to finish.
Review: Really, that title sums it up. Simply gorgeous, a compelling storyline, and if hardcore Tolkein fans are at all correct, it's very true to the book. I barely remember much of anything at all from the original text, so the movie was "new" to me in many places. All of the cast members excelled in their roles, most notably Sir Ian McKellan, Viggo Mortensen, and Hugo Weaving. The special effects were outstanding - the Ringwraiths were terrifyingly spooky, and the computer-generated landscapes breath-taking.

I have only two complaints about the film (which, given its considerable length, isn't much:)

1.) The Hobbits' feet. While the Fx team did an amazing job hacking the human actors' legs off at the knees (pretty much,) the large, rubbery, obviously-fake bare feet were just appallingly awful. With everything else done so well, it seems they could have done a better job here.

2.) The Cave Troll's animation - it seemed clunky and out-of-date to me. With the incredible CGI work elsewhere, this scene stuck out horribly.

That's it! For a 178-minute film, two nitpicky criticisms seems pretty darned good to me. The original story the writers were working with was rich and full, and they've done it justice here. I could go on and on about how indescribably beautiful it all was, veritably frothing at the mouth and drooling as I try to convey the depths of my enthusiasm, but really, you should just go and see it for yourself, if you are among the 14 or so people who have yet to fight the lines for a seat. It was well worth standing in line for an hour in 20-degree weather.

Beyond "highly-recommended;" absolutely required.

Summary: THE RING OF POWER
Review: This is the best movie I have seen, and I'm a teenager! It has action, and adventure. You are always waiting to see what will happen next and it always startles you no matter how many times you've seen it. In the beginning it seems peaceful enough, but as the story goes on, you quickly realize that it is far from that. When Frodo, a hobbit gets the ring, he must journey far from his home into the realms of Mordor, where the Lidless Eye is watching and waiting. Leaving the Shire, he sets out with his faithful servant, Samwise, not knowing the perils that lay before him.
Between the hardships of leaving the Shire all the way to Mordor there is nonstop action. Upon Weathertop, the hobbits now aided by Strider(Aragorn), they come to a surprise. The Ringwraiths track them there and Frodo is stabbed by a morgul knife, and I know that I could feel the fear and terror that Frodo felt. This movie is a must see and I recommend it for the action type. Can you believe that I didn't want to see it at first? But after I saw it, I wanted to see it again. I know own all three books, a heroes poster, a bookmark and a small replica of the ring. I have even recorded every commercial off the internet and still wish to see it a third time.
It will bring every known feeling to you. Please see it, you won't regret it one bit. The actors are great, especially Frodo Baggins(Elijah Wood) and Gandalf, even Sam, Merry, Pippin, and Legolas and all of them. Out of every movie I've seen, this is the only one I've every returned to see in less than a month later. Excellent movie, I congratule everyone who helped with the film for a job well done, especially the actors and director. I can't wait for the next two to come to theaters.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: An Epic for our time.
Review: Every so often an epic comes along. When I was a young boy, it was Ben Hur. Lord of the Rings is the epic of the present! I read the book when it came out in the mid sixties. I reread it more than 20 times. Therefore, when I first saw the movie I was a little disappointed as I knew it by heart. However, I went to see the movie a second time, with my wife who had only read the book once, a long time ago. I thoroughly enjoyed the movie, as this time I was watching it for enjoyment and saw it through the eyes of my wife. I now intend to go to see it again with my son and daughter (they are in their twenties - this IS NOT a childrens' movie). Liv Tyler's character was great, Hugo Weaving was wondeful, Sean Astin was also great (I loved him in Rudy). Excellent cast for an excellently produced and filmed EPIC!!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Loved it!!!
Review: As a life-long addict of the written trilogy (and all of Tolkein's other works) I was always worried about how such an event packed story could be presented on screen. This movie really hits the target - several incidents are missed or combined but this does not detract from the overall theme of the primary quest.
I was totally absorbed by the superb characterisation. Most people have commented on Ian McKellan's role and, of course, Elijah Wood - I also felt that excellent choices had been made for Bormir, Legolas, Gimli - in fact all the principal characters.
The movie really brought the book to life for me, with superb imagery.
I saw it with my two teenaged kids - neither of whom has completed the written trilogy yet - and was delighted that they enjoyed it as much as me.
I can honestly say that I feel that it is the best film I have ever seen - I can't wait for the next two parts! And I will collecting the DVDs to treasure for ever!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Speechless....
Review: This movie makes you want to visit New Zealand. This movies makes you want to read the books (if you haven't). This movie makes stars out of Wood and Bloom. I can't say enough good things about this movie. Don't wait for the DVD because it requires the viewing in a theater setting. Hurry, before they end the theatrical run....
