The great movie to own!

This is one of the best movies I have seen for the year so far!!!, after I saw the moview, I read the book. I must say, the book is not that much different from the movie...oviously the book is more detailed...the second part of the movie, I anticipate will be even better, because the book was a page turner.... after I had finished reading the entire book, in my mind I could envision the actual movie... the book was very clear and I can't wait to see the second part. the special effects are absolutely stunning. The directors did a great job with everything.

Excellent movie follows the book very well!!

If you love JRR Tolkiens Lord of the Rings or fantasy/adventure you have to see Peter Jackson's Lord of the Rings Trilogy!! Elija Wood (Frodo), Orlando Bloom (Legolas), Viggo Mortensen (Stider/Aragorn), Sir Ian McKellen (Gandalf), Hugo Weaving (Elrond) and the others are outstanding!! This is a movie that does some justice to the book despite a few differences between them!! Excellent a must see!

''My Precious...''

I have watched so many movies... too many, maybe. But never had any of them ever etched in my mind as much as the FOTR did. The visual effects and cinematography are stunning. Every scene is breathtaking -- The Shire, Rivendell, Lothlorien, the Misty Mountains, the River Bruinen, the Great River Anduin, and even the darkest place like Moria. The casts are so perfect for their roles. The score is majestic. I have watched Beautiful Mind. How it beated the FOTR at the Academy Awards I still do not understand.

Love this movie

A good introduction to the lore and characters and the setting. Good acting, characters, soundtrack, direction, etc.

Buy the DVD version instead

I have watched the DVD version many times. Very disappointed to find many scenes removed in the Blu ray version: Elrond's council, inside Moria, in Lorien. The story has lost a lot.

NOT the Extended Version

I got my copies of all three blu-ray discs in and they are NOT the extended versions they are the theatrical cuts.

amazing movie im currently am reading the fellowship of the ring

lord of the rings is one big epic movie it rocks from begining to the very end!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The best

This is a very good movie

I Love LOTR!!

I am probably LOTR's biggest fan!! (Although, I'm probably one of thousands who say that!;) This is one of my favorite movies, and always will be. You usually can't say that the movie was just as good as the book, but this one is..... and the book was amazing! I love all the characters. Merry and Pippin make it funny. All the actors did an amazing job. The special effects are great! Everything about the movie is great! Make sure you watch The Two Towers and The Return of the King. They get better each time! Which is amazing because I didn't think that it was possible after watching Fellowship of the Ring! I LOVE LOTR!!

Great for years to come

I know this film will be a film families will watch for many years to come.

An Amazing Acheivement

This DVD is the first version of the first Lord of the Rings movies. In other words, the one that sparked the whole phenonmenon. Sure, maybe the extended editions or The Return of the King is better than this, but do you really want to be without the one that started it all? I don't think so! This film rocks, and it's got even better pacing than the extended version; it's well worth the money.

Captivating and Exciting!!

Must sure you see the entire trilogy to understand the story. It is a perfect movie for fans of all ages.

Amazing!

This movie is amazing! It has amazing actors, and is more light hearted and not as dark as the other movies. I love Merry and Pippin and how they bring some comedy to this amazing movie.

The beginning of a Classic

What can be said about the movie that many thought would never be made. Everything from the casting to the actual film is FANTASTIC. I think the way Peter Jackson and his co-writers of this and the 2 sequels were able to extract the main story from the extensive books that are the LORD of the RINGS trilogy and make the films was tremendous. Many hard-core fans of the books were somewhat upset by what was left out but the movies were 3 hrs long each as they were.

Wonderful film.

Kudos to Al. Certainly no Kudos to Karl. I consider this film my generation's Star Wars. If you're a little nervous about the fantasy genre, just remember, this film represents everything that makes our world go round. You will learn a lot from this trilogy. And get a good nine hours of entertainment as well. The story and characters are what make this film. The setting is just a colorful way to keep the watchers attention. Definately my favorite film of all time.

To Karl...

Instead of bashing people who may disagree with your taste in movies, read a book. Then go and see the movie. Then if you don't like the movie, let us know why. When you make snap judgements about things you know nothing about, people tend to not have much respect for what you have to say.

DORKS ! ! ! !

want to know why this movie sucked? i never read the books and am not a geek. the movie has a midget going to throw a ring into a mountain. that's it. how is that make for and epic movie? if you play dungeons and dragons, have been stuffed in a locker at school, or have tape on your glasses this is the movie for you. otherwise it's over 3 hours of elves,wizards,and trolls. if you like this movie put down your dragon model and re-evaluate your life.

This is a must see!

It entered me into another world. I'm tellin' you what this was the coolest movie ever. Besides the other Two movies, anyway. Trust me. Once you watch this you will be a Lord of the Rings fanatic!

The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring

This one is quite good and entertaining. The people who portrayed the characters are quite good with their roles and the costumes are excellent including the sword fighting, villians, monsters and the eye including of course the one ring to rule them all.
