With the help of a courageous fellowship of friends and allies, Frodo embarks on a perilous mission
to destroy the legendary One Ring. Hunting Frodo are servants of the Dark Lord, Sauron, the Ring's evil creator. If Sauron
reclaims the Ring, Middle-earth is doomed. Fellowship of the Ring will probably go down in film history as a timeless
classic, just as the books have. Its beautiful to watch, the sweeping vistas and landscapes depicted in the background is
some of the best cinematography I've seen in a long while. The special effects are also some of the best in the business,
I'd say ILM better watch out for these upstarts from down under. This film is a perfect example of not depending so much on
computer animation to tell a story, it is part of the story and doesn't become the focus of the film. Take some notes George!
Release Date: December 19th 2001
