Summary: One Of The Greatest Movies EVER!
Review: This is an incredible movie(as if you've been living under a rock all this time...). To illustrate what could have happened I will refer to the travesty that was the animated version. In the 80's at some point somepeople thought to themselves "Lets make a movies out of the lord of the rings". And it was a good idea. But then they thought to themselves "Live action is going to be too hard", so they decided to animate it. Then, one day, they decided "Hey, lets put some live action footage in and rotoscope over it". Then, the last straw, they said "3 movies is too long, lets compress it down to 2". That is a possibility for what could have happened AGAIN. But, thanks to an excellent cast, crew and true vision, they pulled off what was once thought to be impossible... A viable movie version of the trilogy. The only gripe I have is the exclusion of Bombadil, and even that couldn't distract me from the mastery with which this movie was done.

Summary: It's the best movie ever made!!
Review: This movie surpasses any other movie made in history. Entrancing story line by J.R.R. Tolkien, amazing visuals with breath-taking settings, this movie has everything! Romance, drama, action that will keep you on the edge of your seat. The actors are superb, and they add so much to the whole amazing movie! Elijah Wood, Ian McKellan, Sean Astin, Billy Boyd, Dominic Monoghan, Orlando Bloom (he he, I love him) and countless other actors were just amazing, even if they had minor roles! The music, the costumes, everything was purely magical. It absolutely takes you in, and you are lost into another world. That movie left me feeling weak in the knees. Also, it will not disappoint those who have read the book. I have read it, and am reading it again, and everyone and everything are just how I imagined them. It is a timeless piece and will leave you breathless. All ages will love it. I mean, I'm a 14-year-old girl, and I've seen it six times and am willing to see it again. I am not crazy, but see this movie for yourself and you will understand.

Summary: The Greatest Movie EVER MADE!!!!!!!!!!!
Review: This movie is inspiring, powerful, and the fight scenes rule! Ive seen it in theaters 4 times already, and i never get bored. I cant wait to get the dvd (of course I pre- ordered it)! My favorite charachter is Strider/Aragorn, he is so cool! I think Peter Jackson created a classic, that will last forever. That horse water thing is so sick! FRODO LIVES ON. yeah I cant wait for the two towers!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Magnificent and Brilliant
Review: I went to see the movie four times. The ability to make the hobbits look shorter than all the other characters astonished me, as did the elaborate landscapes. I had earlier read the book, and it followed closely, knit together so you would hardly notice. Tolkien made a masterpiece when he wrote the series, and making it a movie was bringing to life this excellent novel. A very good movie and definately a good buy.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A home version of the best fantasy movie ever
Review: If Star Wars has showed the world what the best Science Fiction movie is, The Lord of the Rings did the same in Fantasy.

If you like Fantasy, you already know that it's a must-have, and you will definitly want to have it in your home collection. If you don't like Fantasy, you'd still buy it to your home collection as the best representative of the fantasy movies.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: LotR- Best Movie of the Year!
Review: It really should have won Movie of the Year. Anyone who's seen it knows that this is true. But LotR is more than a great movie. It's an adventure, a story that makes you believe that you're actually there. It's great in the aspect that it sticks to the story line, except for the lack of Tom Bombadil and Glorfindel, of course, but other than that it's almost exact. Peter Jackson did a magnificent job of directing, Elijah Wood looks as though he was born a hobbit! Orlando Bloom and John Rhys-Davies were perfect as Legolas and Gimli. Not to mention Sean Astin, Dominic Monaghan, and Billy Boyd as Sam, Merry, and Pip! Pip's famous line "So, where are we going?" was perfectly done! But the ones who bring it all together, of course, are Viggo Mortensen as Aragorn and Sir Ian McKellen as Gandalf. Wonderful work by everyone. And did you notice... the balrog DIDN'T have wings...

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: I'm disapointed to say the least
Review: This film is perfect and magical in every way,but if the dvd specifications are correct,WHERE is the DTS ES 6.1 transfer?There is no other way to see this film,you need that extra surround back channel to fully appreciate this masterpiece(2 speakers behind the listener).They got everything else right with this dvd,but they dropped the ball big time with the sound transfer.I'll wait to see if a 6.1 DTS transfer wil be offered.As a result some audio information from the master print will have to be deleted in order to accomodate the DD 5.1 track.There are sounds found in the original that will not be on the DVD.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Long & No ending
Review: After watching this movie more than two weeks ago I can't resist not telling the truth here any more!

Ok this movie has the best Cinemography picture ever in cinema history. The scenes are SUPERB and breath taking. Every scene is a master piece by itself. The CGI is excellent, sound track, action & acting... all are GREAT.

But frankly we cannot deny that the movie was too long that you really get bored few times. And the most disturbing thing was that this movie has no ending! "To Be Continued" is the worst annoying type of ending. I was very upset then.

Of course we all will go watch part two and three because this movie managed to catch our breath... but please make it shorter and with an ending!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A superb film...
Review: Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Rings is one of the best films I have ever seen. The plot is intricate, but understandably so. The action kept coming, and the ending leaves you wanting for more. Whether you like action or fantasy, this is the film for you.

Rating: 5 stars
