The Fellowship of the Ring (2001) Film review


A marvellous beginning to J.R.R Tolkien’s incredible fantasy world will leave you astonished of how the fantasy could make you want to watch the next two parts and even read the books. 

Directed by Peter Jackson, featuring Elijah Wood, Orlando Bloom, Sean Bean; The fellowship of the ring will surprise you.

The plot is a typical but original fantasy plot. Frodo Baggins (Elijah Wood) inherits his uncle’s ring which turns out to be the one ring of power. He is sent on a long, dangerous quest with elves, dwarves, wizards and men to destroy the ring in the fiery depths of Mount Doom so that the dark lord: Sauron, doesn’t unleash shadow and treachery across Middle-Earth. 

Despite this being the first out of three movies, it is filled with much action, romance, goth and other mixes you will experience in this movie. 

Many other fantasies have similar plots of perilous journeys, and in the modern day authors have been more creative, but none could beat this incredibly recognisable masterpiece. 

Peter Jackson also directed The Hobbit, a prequel to The Lord of the Rings, and the modern Mortal engines and They shall not grow old.
