Movies from comedy to drama to your favorite Hollyweird Star.

I just finally watched it...you guys didn't tell me it was a kids movie.

I had no idea...I'm not much for movie reviews.

I didn't think it was bad by any means, just a conglomeration of stuff I've seen in other action movies, certainly nothing the least bit original. I had the *unfortunate* situation of just previously comparing Shrek on my new vs older DVDP. The section I had very unfortunately viewed a few times in Shrek was the part where they are escaping with the princess from the castle. Did they copy this almost exactly in LOTR or what. OK, there's not a lot of originality in many action movies, but this seemed blatant when viewed in close proximity. And Shrek and HP had some humor in them, LOTR had none at all, except possibly the dragon firework thing, barely counts.

A nice-looking movie, with no new content I thought. This could be a 2-1/2 hour movie, God forbid the director's cut needs to be longer. Unless it was cut for rating, but even then 1/2 hour could easily be removed for that "better" new 1/2 hour. You can't tell, but I did like the movie, just didn't find it the slightest bit inspiring.
