The Fellowship of the Ring is one of those films that comes once in a lifetime, how fortunate we are as human beings to be around at a time where 3 of these films are released within 3 short years!! The fellowship is just the perfect blend of setting the story, fleshing out characters and introducing us to the world of middle earth! Ian McKellen as Gandalf is just legendary.... mysterious, loveable, occasionally hilarious and in THAT iconic scene, completely immortalised. Elijah wood, Sean Astin, Dominic Monaghan and Billy Boyd showcase perfectly not only their playful naivety and innocence but a good heart along with their fierce will and courage to do whatever it takes. Sean Bean does what he does best in most films but has never upset as more in this case and whilst doing so shows us both the best and worst qualities of humans in the harsh, hostile but magical world of Middle earth. By the end of the film you're dying to see what happens next and at every turn you get both attention to detail and storytelling that is seldom found elsewhere. If you haven't watched the Fellowship of the Ring yet, I beg of you! Do it!! It's the first film of a trilogy that is so close to perfection that it will only be seen once in a lifetime 🏅

It's a brilliant little play as long as you're not expecting a AAA title, The story is fantastic, using the Spanish flu as a backdrop is just inspired! Jonathan is a fantastic protagonist/antagonist depending on your choices and doesn't ever feel out of place, his internal struggle between the hippocratic oath hes taken and the hunger that plagues him is always interesting. The voice acting is top notch, graphics are fairly decent and the combat is challenging as hell on a pacifist run but very rewarding. The only drawbacks are that it's a little repetitive at times and the loading times are annoying as hell. I would/will definitely play again and it's a little gem for those looking for something a bit different and less mainstream 👍

A great and underrated film that doesn't take itself too seriously, you get the impression that the actors enjoyed themselves filming it. Brilliant chemistry and action scenes with Reynolds and Jackson, Salma Hayek steals the show in every scene she's in with her fiery screen presence and humour. There's never a shortage of giggles when watching this fun film, great Sunday afternoon watch if you're in a light hearted mood.
