This is to fans of "D&D" and other tales of myth & magic like "Star Wars" is to fans of sci-fi and outer space adventures.
I was never really into this kind of thing as a youngster but I thought it was quite good. I might watch the other ones one day!
Am I the only person in the world who doesn't like LOTR?? could be. This first film was ok, the look is good but just not dark or scary enough. The cast is good, especially he Hobbits, and they work very well with their characters. The effects for me are just too cgi and plastic ...( read more)

this came on so many tmes I didn't watch the channel for over a month...Stil,it was good.
Peter Jackson and & Co's first outing of The Lord Of The Rings trilogy is a remarkable outing indeed. The most linear of the three films, Fellowship is also the most accessible to an audience. The entire ensemble is superb. Not a single wrong note, which is in part thanks to t...( read more)
This was the first Peter Jackson film I ever saw. My friends have told me that his previous films were terrible, but that's so hard to believe because this was so beautiful. This is probably one of the best fantasy film you'll ever see. Harry Potter has been dethroned by this mag...( read more)

Breathtaking. Captivating. Inspiring.

The real deal, a movie epic that pops your eyes out, piles on thrills and fun, and yet stays intimately attuned to character. full review
As an allegory of war and world dominance, Ring is weighty stuff, and Jackson gives it appropriate resonance. full review
An audience looking for a Star Wars-like fix, albeit with wands and rings instead of light sabres, is sure to offer a healthy return. full review
A well-crafted and sometimes stirring adventure. full review
It would be an insult to say the picture merely lives up to its hype; it crashes the meaning of hype, exposing it as the graven image it is. full review
awesome....one pf my all time favorites...
a great fantasy..the scenes seemed realistic..love it!
the actors/actresses did a pretty awesome work!
whenever i watch, i feel like i'm part of it..wow!
certainly my favourite movies, i dont know how many times i have watched,very intoxicating
Amazing! Peter Jackson did a tremendous job at adapting the greatest book series of all time into the greatest film series of all time. Blows Harry Potter out of the water in so many ways. I hope he will direct the Hobbit, couldn't imagine anyone else.
