I agree that the animation wasnโt the best. But the story from my memory is close to the lore.
The character was actually good. As well as Helmโs last stand was the best part of the story.
I have seen what others have said. And I agree that it isnโt top tier. But it wasnโt as awful as some people say.
I heard that they took at lot of the music for the lotr and just put it in the movie. But they changed most of it slightly. They definitely used it but did change it.
The animation is the only real reason that I could saw the movie was bad. But I think the main reason was that I donโt really like that style of animation.
