Product Description
Amazon.ca
As the triumphant start of a trilogy, The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring leaves you begging for more. By necessity, Peter Jackson's ambitious epic compresses J.R.R. Tolkien's classic The Lord of the Rings , but this robust adaptation maintains reverent allegiance to Tolkien's creation, instantly qualifying as one of the greatest fantasy films ever made. At 178 minutes, it's long enough to establish the myriad inhabitants of Middle-earth, the legendary Rings of Power, and the fellowship of hobbits, elves, dwarves, and humans--led by the wizard Gandalf (Ian McKellen) and the brave hobbit Frodo (Elijah Wood)--who must battle terrifying forces of evil on their perilous journey to destroy the One Ring in the land of Mordor. Superbly paced, the film is both epic and intimate, offering astonishing special effects and production design while emphasizing the emotional intensity of Frodo's adventure. Ending on a perfect note of heroic loyalty and rich anticipation, this wondrous fantasy continues in The Two Towers (2002). --Jeff Shannon
Chronique Amazon.fr
Grandiose. Magnifique. Captivant. Magique. Les mots manquent pour qualifier cette brillante adaptation cinématographique d'un des plus grands romans d'héroïc fantasy. Le Seigneur des Anneaux est un film fleuve racontant l'épopée d'un jeune hobbit détenant un anneau aux pouvoirs très puissants, convoité par Sauron, seigneur des ténèbres qui se verrait bien dominer le monde grâce à celui-ci. Cette lutte entre le bien et le mal est illustrée avec maestria par Peter Jackson, fan du roman de J.R.R. Tolkien depuis toujours. La force des émotions partagées par des personnages attachants, courageux et valeureux, et l'horreur dégagée par les ennemis destructeurs s'allient à des décors et effets spéciaux impressionnants et jamais vus au cinéma. Une telle richesse d'images demande plusieurs visions pour découvrir tous les aspects du monde enchanté de Peter Jackson. Aventure, guerre, suspense, fantastique, amour, humour. Tout est là pour faire du Seigneur des Anneaux un très grand moment de cinéma. --Marc Maesen

Totally satisfied!,
By ÿtienne Mallette (Montréal, Quebec Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring (Widescreen) (DVD)
There is nothing to add to all the positive critics you can read below. The movie itself is great, and the extras on the second CDs are a real treat! :)The only thing bad about all this is how cruelly they taunt us with the extended version to be released in November!

Unfortunate Experience,
This review is from: The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring (Widescreen) (DVD)
The disc I ordered was severely cracked. The DVD was wrapped in paper, with no padding. I told the seller, they said they would send me another copy. I waited about three weeks, nothing arrived. I emailed the seller, he had forgotten about me. Supposedly he has sent me an extra DVD as compensation. BUT, that was three weeks ago. I ordered this DVD at the beginning of February and I am still waiting for it.

A Little Skippy/Freezy,
By
This review is from: The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring (Full Screen) (DVD)
The DVD skipped and froze several times. It was a little frustrating, but we eventually got through the movie.
