Remarkable
11 January 2004
I have never made any comments in English or posted any here. But I really hope to see the movie get higher rating and I really feel need to write down how I love the movie.

As a child,I was nowhere living in any surrounding of western tales. I had no idea where the story of LOR would go when I had the first sight on the 1st episode TFOR.I didnt even understand the most fundamental questions: why need Frodo go to destroy the ring, why it's him not others, and why frodo could resist the power while others cant. The story was totally 'exotic' for me. But still, I was so attracted by the scenes and braveness, united spirit, loveness showing by the picture.

Now comes the third one and the best movie ever may I say. It is even much better than all I can imagine. I watched the movie in a theatre late night with only 2 other movie viewers sitting far behind. It was quiet and no one would have seen me shedding tears along the movie going. Yes, I choked and was so moved. The only other movie which did the same thing to me was Shawshank's redemption, which was once in the no.1 place of my favorite movie list. Now it's taken by LOR3.

Lor2 was considered as one movie with less compassion and moving moments. For lor3, there are so many touching scenes that any few of them would be enough to gain my full respect for the filming groups. No one can complain being given too much, right?

The picture is describing an ideal world. but why not? We are living in a busy and wearing world, what is the chance for us to be a warrior or some small man who can gain the highest respect from others, like hobbits. The original story must be good. But I am still sure I would enjoy the movie much more than reading the novel itself. Thank the filming groups and the ones who performed the film. It was and will be a memorable 3-hour-time in my life.

The character I liked the best is Sam(performed by Sean Astin).Sean played the role vividly and delivered so well the deep meaning of friendship and loyalty. No doubt, he deserves an Oscar for best supporter role.

The story ends and I feel sad at the same time coz there is no lor4 for the next December. I will watch the movie again and again, along with the other two.

Life becomes meaningful. Thank movies.
