The Lord of The Rings
If I have to
choose one movie that I love the most I will choose The Lord of The Rings. I
think this movie is the best movie ever. The Lord of
the Rings is an epic high fantasy novel written by English author J. R. R.
Tolkien. If you ask me why I love The Lord of the Rings, that’s because the
movie was so incredible till I never get bored to watching it, This
film can bring your imagination to get into the film as if you were in a
situation like that, I love the
setting of the place in the movie looks very beautiful and real. The plot is interesting and not boring, so that made me want
to watch it over and over. All I watch
this movie I've always made tense by the
story, It is very
complicated and not easy to guess. Characters that
created in the story is very unique and different from each other and has its
own characteristic of every character. A story of struggle, sacrifice, friendship, loyalty,
betrayal, and love is all fused into one in this movie.
Character that I love the most in this movie is Legolas the Elf although
he is not the main cast but he is one of the character
who is very influential in this story. The nature of
the characters Legolas the elf is brave, kind, a great archer, each shooting
arrows never misses, loyal friend, and the most important thing is he is very
handsome and charming. That’s why I really love him in this movie.
The Lord of The Rings: The Fellowship of The Rings
This is an old adage that has been the basis for many a story. It is the
primary plot device behind John Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings classic.
Written in 1954-55, with origins dating back to 1937, the first of the three
movie installments, which have already been filmed, tries to stay true to the
mystical world present in the book. The resulting effort is a definite success.
The star of the story, and the film,
is not a person, but an object, a ring. The ring allows one to control a host
of other rings handed down to the different peoples of Middle Earth: three
rings belong to the immortal elves; seven to the dwarfs; and nine rings to
mortal humans. The ring that rules all the others, forged using the fires of
Mount Doom by the evil Wizard Sauron (Sala Baker), gives its holder so much
power that it corrupts all those who seek to wear it, even the purest.
Of course, there are some peoples
that are more pure than others. Humans generally seem incapable of wearing it
without being corrupted by its influence (no surprise there). But there exists
a diminutive people, the Hobbits, who do seem at least capable of carrying it
without being polluted too much. It falls upon one Hobbit, Frodo Baggins
(Elijah Wood), to take the ring to Mt. Doom, which is the only place where it
can be destroyed.
Frodo is aided in his quest by the
wizard Gandalf (Ian McKellen), the elf Legolas Greenleaf (Armando Bloom), the
dwarf Gimli (John Rhys-Davies), two humans Strider aka Aragorn (Viggo
Mortensen) and Boromir (Sean Bean), and three other Hobbits including Frodo's
friend Samwise Gamgee (Sean Astin). The story chronicles how Frodo, being a
reluctant hero, travels through mysterious and dangerous lands of breathtaking
beauty, and fights terrific monsters in the context of awesome towers and
citadels, to achieve his goal.
Perhaps one of the most visionary aspects
about Tolkien's work is how he set the stage for a Dungeons and Dragons style
video-game. Director Peter Jackson imbibes to the film the same feel present
the book, in terms of traversing a diverse variety of landscapes, while
encountering a diverse variety of creatures, friend and foe alike. Watching the
film, it's easy to become mesmerised by the fantasy that is unfolding purely
based on the cinematography.
The Lord of The Rings: The Two Towers
The main goal of this episode is to showcase the unleashing of the Saruman's forces to conquer middle earth. The movie actually ends on a positive note, with our friends having the upper hand in the two epic battles--between Saruman's 10,000 strong army and the inhabitants of the Kingdom of Rohan at their Helm's Deep fortress; and between the Ents and Sarmuan's war machine in Isengard--as well as several minor ones.
The cinematography, along with the computer graphics, is awe-inspiring. Gollum is animated brilliantly, so much that I thought he was more convincing than any of the real actors. The CGI in general is state-of-the-art; the only time I could clearly discern the computer generated images was when they had the battle with the Wargs, There is a lot of humour in the film, which shows that nothing in life is worth taking too seriously. The soundtrack, which is reminiscent of old Westerns, is excellent.
It's hard to fault a film that is as well-made as this one. In my view, The Two Towers is best judged on its own merits. While it would help to be familiar with Tolkien's works (including The Hobbit, which really fills in a great deal of the background material), this tale can stand on its own if you use your imagination.
The Lord of
The Rings: The Return of The King
The best character throughout the whole series of films for me was Smeagol (voiced Andy Serkis) whose history as he becomes the Gollum is showcased here, as is the corrupting nature of power. This is how the movie starts, and as everyone knows, it ends with his death. Perhaps the best lesson from this film is that Frodo is a potential Gollum, and Gollum is a potential Frodo.
The graphics were absolutely perfect. The final epic battle is a visual spectacle. And as has been the trademark in this movie series, the are interspersed with poignant scenes that are irrelevant to time and place, when viewed from an anthropomorphic perspective. Further, the visual scenes themselves a great mix of live action with computer-generated images which blend together seamlessly. The most anticlimactic moment had to do with the defeat of Sauron, which in the end I thought happened a little too easily. I would've liked to see him go head to head a little more with Frodo's friends.
No set of words in a review can do justice to The Lord of the Rings movies, save to say that it's best watched on a large screen with great surround sound so you can see for yourself why.
