Movie Reviews of The Lord of the Rings - The Fellowship of the Ring (Widescreen Edition)

Movie Review: Makes the movies even MORE than they already are!
Summary: 5 Stars

I got the theatrical version of Fellowship of the Ring when it came out. I didnt know the extended version would be released later. When the Two Towers and Return of the King came out I got the extended versions of them. I ended up trading in my theatrical version of Fellowship and buying the extended version. These are absolutely worth everything. Most movies that have extended or deleted scenes just throw them in a menu to watch all out of order. In this, the extended and deleted scenes are put INTO the movie, making each movie 30-50 minutes LONGER! After seeing the extended versions of these movies you will never want to think of the theatrical versions again. Plus, if you're someone like me and enjoy things looking badass on a shelf, these bulky book looking boxes are awesome collectibles that will spice up your DVD shelf.

Even without the two disks per film of bonus features, these are worth it just for the extended versions of the films. If you have the regular versions, I would recommend taking them somewhere that buys used DVDs and using the money towards buying these.

Summary of The Lord of the Rings - The Fellowship of the Ring (Widescreen Edition)

Based on J.R.R. Tolkien's masterpiece, The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring is an epic adventure of good against evil, the power of friendship and individual courage. The saga centers around an unassuming Hobbit named Frodo Baggins who inherits a Ring that would give a dark and powerful lord the power to enslave the world. With a loyal fellowship of elves, dwarves, men and a wizard, Frodo embarks on a heroic quest to destroy the One Ring and pave the way for the emergence of mankind.

Theatrical Trailer:Original theatrical trailers


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
