Users review: Lord of the Rings is one of my favorite books that I've read it several times, and remember to think about the last time 3 years ago that if I did a movie Id want to make it to this, but it would be nearly impossible. Then you can imagine how strong my expectations when I went to see the highly anticipated first installment. This movie impressed me enormously, more than anything else because of how true it was my imagination, both in the characters and effects and create a feeling I've always hay rt from other fans of the books. Elijah Wood brought upon the character of Frodo with the sort of haunted, captures fragile courage Tolkien so well in the books. I also could not find anything wrong at all with Ian McKellans Gandalf, Viggo Mortensen's Aragorn and Sean Bean's Boromir, who all thought I was played excellent. I could pick where I think, no, that's not right, but their seldomness number would only serve to illustrate the quality of the overall picture. One thing that did stand out for me was Cate Blanchett performance as Galadriel, the part itself was so shallow in the film, which for me its alternation between benevolent observer and nature of potential terrorist seemed little more than a bit confusing detour with no real connection to it other than as a vehicle for a glimpse into the future plot. But that was it.I thought that the points on which Jackson did depart from the text was entirely the right to do so. Shorten the inaugural Shire scenes and cut out the whole Tom Bombadil piece was great because frankly they bore me a bit in the book anyway. Expand also the role of Arwen was a wise decision. However, this film is not in any way from criticism. The dialogue was in my opinion terrible and purely there to drive the plot. Normally this would ruin a movie for me (as in The Matrix), making it almost unbearable to watch, but thankfully this show a little more than a minor irritation. In addition, the film seemed to be generally unnecessary plot-driven and sometimes a mad dash from one action scene to another, the characters all their truth to the book seems flat and sometimes a little more than stereotypical fantasy characters. This is perhaps my big argument with the film, I wanted these characters to have come to life as people in a way that was impossible with the little script coaster nature of the plot . Generally the whole movie lacked the depth of context that I think separates Tolkien from other fantasy writers. But having achieved this would have required an entirely different movie, and you can not fault an action movie to be an action movie. This film is certainly not for everyone. Many people not only to get other than Lord of the Rings fantasy, I'm not special either. But in my opinion, Jackson has really done an incredible achievement, carried his and Tolkien's vision suberbly a stunning setting and stunning special effects, as well as a cast clearly as captivated as he was. He has been a huge task, and treats it with breathtaking success. |
