Title: Way Too Cool
Review: I was never one who could get into the LOTR books and when the movie was released it held no interest for me to go. But I kept hearing such great things about the movie from two friends (thanks Jon and Becca). ...and I have to admit, the previews seemed pretty good.Last holiday season (2002), I did purchase the platinum series for my partner as a gift. I can't even begin to say how much we liked it. It is long - but it doesn't seem so. The 3+ hrs flew by and we were disappointed when it was over. We wanted to see more....and a lot more there is in this version. Maybe almost too much. It's a bit overwhelming. Looking forward to the 'Two Towers' coming out later this year - and the final movie at the theatres shortly thereafter.note: i have friends of friends who got this for their kids (who are both under 6yo). I'm not sure this is for them. Nothing horrible - but that young might give them baaaaad dreams.
Is the review positive or negative?
