Boring as hell I love the first trilogy
Thought the movie was great. It did a great job on tying into the LOTR trilogy. Flow was good, lots of action, good battle scenes, etc.
Unforgettable. Must see.
don't know what everyone is whining about. overall it's a good movie. and of course it *can't* be as good as the ones 10 years ago. all of middle earth isn't neck deep in horror yet people, so it will of course be a little less epic. still good though. I was impressed.
If you liked LOTR this will not dissapoint
A tremendous journey into nerdom. This movie does not disappoint. A lot of Tolkiens original dialogue was used.
Good, but not great.
It was a good movie, but it was not a great movie. I had not read the book first so I found the movie a little disjointed. The book may have helped.
4.5 stars, beginning was a bit slow then it went into overdrive. So glad they introduced new characters and cut out the cheesy love story. Gollum, as always, just tugs at your heart strings.
Absolutely stunning. The movie of the year hands down. Epic battle scenes, spectacular cinematography and unforgettable heart wrenching moments. Ahh, I will see at least 5 times before it comes out of theaters.
