I was totally surprised at how great this film.You could feel your paranoia rise as the film went on and as you gradually learned the details of the real situation.
Great story, amazing characters, superb action, enthralling cinematography. Yes, this is something I am glad I spent money on.
This movie gave me cancer in the heart. Please delete this movie.
Movie is so nice.. but one thing which I hate is the character frodo.. all the other characters super , except frodo
The movie is a three hours journey to a fantasy world ... I have nothing to say about this movie , cause I think the world AMAZING would describe it perfectly
"The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring" has always been a favorite of mine. The storytelling is powerful and compelling, and the world is rich and beautiful. Few films have been able to accomplish what this film has. It is a masterful work that cannot be missed by any fan of cinema.-Analysis of Notable Work- *Writing/Story: The pace of the film is consistent and effective throughout. The characters have powerful personalities that are easy to identify with or admire. It is a grounded story that has heart. There is also very moving dialogue that make some scenes unforgettable. *Directing: Peter Jackson proves his ability to be at the helm of a massive project. He pays attention to detail and commands the attention of viewers with his compelling storytelling ability. *Cinematography: Andrew Lesnie paints the world of Middle-earth beautifully, yet honestly. The film has a grittiness to it, but a sense of hope as well. Lesnie captures the performances of the actors with absolute mastery. His vision brings Middle-earth to life with a realism few fantasy films achieve. *Music/Sound Design: The music is incredible in this film. It feels authentic to the world while still heightening emotions. It is an important part of the story. The sound design is amazing as well. There are so many unique sounds that are completely original to this world, and they make it feel more authentic. *Acting: The acting does not have a weak spot. Every actor holds their own, and some even steal the show. Viggo Mortensen, Ian McKellen, and Christopher Lee all have remarkably powerful performances. It is easy to get lost in any scene due to so many strong performances. *Production Design/Special Effects: The set design and costume, as well as make-up and props are all incredibly realistic and have amazing detail. It is truly incredible to see the lengths the crew went to in order to achieve a high level of realism. The VFX and practical effects are way ahead of their time. They have also held up as time goes by. While it is not perfect, they have aged very well and are by no means weak. *Conclusion: This film was a true pioneer in multiple aspects and deserves to be called one of the best of all time.
