About this movie

In the first part of J.R.R. Tolkien's epic masterpiece, The Lord of the Rings, a shy young hobbit, Frodo Baggins (Elijah Wood), inherits a simple gold ring. He knows the ring has power, but not that he alone holds the secret to the survival -- or enslavement -- of the entire world. Frodo, accompanied by a wizard, an elf, a dwarf, two men and three loyal hobbit friends, must now become the greatest hero the world has ever known to save the land and the people he loves. Also starring Academy Award and Golden Globe-winner Cate Blanchett, Academy Award-nominee and Golden Globe-winner Ian McKellan, Academy Award-nominee Viggo Mortensen, Orlando Bloom, and Liv Tyler. Winner of four Academy Awards including Best Cinematography, Best Original Score, Best Visual Effects and Best Makeup. MPAA Rating: PG-13 Rated PG-13 for epic battle sequences and some scary images. ™ © 2002 New Line Home Entertainment, INC. All rights reserved.

The films altogether are actually quite good. There everything you could expect from a Peter Jackson film. But ELIAH BROOK - FRODO BAGGINS, son of BILBO BAGGINS- A GREAT AND BRAVE HERO, just ruins it. The acting that he displays when the rings power is too much for him is AWFUL. In some scenes it's like he's got rabies, and in others it's like side effect of CRACK. It gives the impression of the biggest weasel of all time! I wouldn't blame ELIAH for nor ever wanting to watch those films. Cos it's O.T.T

The first in the trilogy will be the movie all future fantasy epics will measured by. Genius filmmaking and perhaps the nearest to source material we could've hoped for.
