: Peter Jackson : Peter Jackson, Barrie M. Osborne, Tim Sanders, Fran Walsh Writers : J.R.R. Tolkien (novel), Fran Walsh (screenplay), Philippa Boyens (screenplay), Peter Jackson (screenplay) Based on : The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring (novel) Starring : Elijah Wood, Ian McKellen, Viggo Mortensen, Sean Astin, Liv Tyler, John Rhys-Davies, Orlando Bloom, Billy Boyd, Dominic Monaghan, Cate Blanchett, Christopher Lee, Hugo Weaving, Ian Holm, Sean Bean Duration : 178 min Genre : Action, Adventure, Fantasy Language : English Released Date : 10 December 2001 Rating : 9 of 10 stars The Lord of the Rings is a fairy-tale of myth and fantasy. Peter Jackson directed a film that was considered, for a very long time, impossible to make, and not only for technical reasons. The narrative roots are incredibly long and detailed, and the storyline is deeply connected with the creation of a fantastic continent from a time unknown called “Middle Earth”. Its author, Tolkien, dedicated a considerable part of his life developing this continent's background, its mythology and origins, its different kinds of people, cultures and languages, and therefore its geographic references are determinant to the unfolding of the story of the One Ring. An ancient Ring thought lost for centuries has been found, and through a strange twist in fate has been given to a small Hobbit named Frodo. When Gandalf discovers the Ring is in fact the One Ring of the Dark Lord Sauron, Frodo must make an epic quest to the Cracks of Doom in order to destroy it! However he does not go alone. He is joined by Gandalf, Legolas the elf, Gimli the Dwarf, Aragorn, Boromir and his three Hobbit friends Merry, Pippin and Samwise. Through mountains, snow, darkness, forests, rivers and plains, facing evil and danger at every corner the Fellowship of the Ring must go. Their quest to destroy the One Ring is the only hope for the end of the Dark Lords reign. The greatest thing about this film, to me, is that I came to understand what this thing of “mankind” really was all about. The corruption of absolute power, the importance and value of friendship, the inevitability of growing up, and the strength of hope. That this film could capture that magic, and be a new bearer to its message of humanism, is a statement to its greatness. Gandalf's words, that even the smallest person may change the course of the world, and have a part to play in the destiny of all, are immortal. In the end, this is a wonderful film, but that doesn't mean you are going to like it. I cannot tell you what it is like to see this film if you don't know or love the book. But I hope it may plant a seed on your heart to discover a great world of fantasy, beauty and humanity.

Penilaian
TEKS The Lord of the Rings adalah dongeng mitos dan fantasi. Peter Jackson pengarah film yang beranggapan, membutuhkan waktu yang sangat lama, tidak mungkin untuk membuat, dan tidak hanya karena alasan teknis. Akar narasi yang sangat panjang dan rinci, dan alur cerita yang sangat terhubung dengan penciptaan benua yang fantastis dari yang tidak diketahui waktu yang disebut “Middle Earth”.Penulisnya, Tolkien, yang mendedikasikan sebagian besar dari hidupnya mengembangkan latar belakang ini benua, mitologi dan asal-usul, jenis orang yang berbeda, budaya dan bahasa , dan karena itu referensi geografis sangat menentukan terhadap terungkapnya kisah Cincin. Sebuah Cincin kuno yang dipikir hilang selama berabadabad telah ditemukan, dan melalui twist aneh nasib telah diberikan kepada Hobbit kecil bernama Frodo. Ketika Gandalf menemukan Cincin sebenarnya Cincin dari Kegelapan Sauron, Frodo harus membuat pencarian yang berani untuk celah malapetaka agar menghancurkannya! Namun dia tidak pergi sendirian. Dia bergabung dengan Gandalf, Legolas elf tersebut, Gimli si Kurcaci, Aragorn, Boromir dan tiga teman Hobbitnya Merry, Pippin dan Samwise. Melalui gunung, salju, kegelapan, hutan, sungai dan dataran, menghadapi kejahatan dan bahaya di setiap sudut Fellowship of the Ring. Pencarian mereka untuk menghancurkan Cincin adalah satu-satunya harapan untuk akhir pemerintahan Gelap Lords. Hal terbesar tentang film ini, bagi saya, adalah bahwa saya datang untuk berpikr memahami hal “kemanusiaan” benarbenar semua tentang itu. Kecurangan kekuasaan yang mutlak, pentingnya dan nilai persahabatan, keniscayaan yang tumbuh, dan kekuatan dari harapan. Bahwa film ini bisa menangkap keajaiban itu, dan menjadi pembawa pesan baru untuk kaum manusia, adalah pernyataan yang

Kesimpulan
besar. Kata Gandalf, bahwa bahkan orang terkecil dapat mengubah arah dunia, dan memiliki bagian untuk bermain dalam semua nasib, yang abadi . Pada akhirnya, ini adalah film yang indah, tapi itu tidak berarti Anda akan menyukainya. Saya tidak dapat memberitahu Anda bagaimana rasanya untuk melihat film ini jika Anda tidak tahu atau mencintai bukunya. Tapi saya berharap dapat menanam benih di hati Anda untuk menemukan sebuah dunia fantasi yang besar, keindahan dan kemanusiaan.
