VHS Movie Reviews of Lord of Rings: Fellowship of Ring (2pc) (Ws Exp) [VHS]
Movie Review: Best movie ever!
Summary: 5 Stars
The Lord of the Rings movies have the perfect combination of emotional acting, fantastical scenery, and thrilling plot twists. Peter Jackson and his team did a superb job and deserved every single Oscar they got. The movies are a wonderful tribute to the books. Fortunately, they've been made so well that they can be enjoyed by all, from the Tolkien aficionado to kids who haven't yet read the books.
Fellowship of the Rings has always been my favorite of the movies. I love how it dwells in the history of Middle Earth. The color filters used to set the moods are techniques still underutilized by cinema. My only recommendation is to get the extended edition - it includes over 40 minutes of new footage - rather than this theatrical release.
Movie Review: Best Movie(s) Ever
Summary: 5 Stars
As a life-long fan of Tolkien's work, I am not exactly unbiased. However, this is a review of the Jackson film, so...
The film is not perfect. I am not a big fan of the changes Jackson made in the story -- the sub-plot with Elrond and Arwen that was not in the book and the absence of the Scourging of the Shire story. Nevertheless, overall the movie captures the essence of Tolkien's tale with brilliance. Jackson's settings, costumes, cinematography, the acting, casting, directing, all were exquisite, to me. Most old-time Tolkien fans I know have long held mental images of how they thought the story might look visually. Nearly every one of these whom I have asked agree that the Jackson film matches their images nearly perfectly. We got the movie we wanted and then some. After many fits and starts over the decades, Tolkien's genius is finally done justice on film.
Can't wait for The Hobbit.
Movie Review: Lord of the Rings DVD
Summary: 5 Stars
I purchased Lord of the Rings, the extended version, to see if it followed the book more closely. It is apparent that several scenes have been added that improve the DVD. What I don't like is this website.Movie Review: closer to the vision
Summary: 5 Stars
Although I loved the theatrical versions of LOTR, so much needed to be left out, even to fit into 3 three hour movies.. The extended versions are closer to the vision. Characters beyond Frodo and Sam are fleshed out more. We also get a greater sense of the duration and duration of Frodo's quest. Great addition to the library.Movie Review: A great interpretation of Tolkien's The Fellowship of the Ring
Summary: 5 Stars
Any Tolkien or medieval adventure fan should own this movie. It's fairly useless without the second movie (The Two Towers) and the last one (The Return of the King). You gotta have all three!
