<B>Schmerudite</B><P>I don't care what degree the reviewer has, or that he supposedly teaches film studies at University level - I've seen much more informative and well-thought out posts on the movie here on the Downs.<P>The only gem of information he reveals is the nature of the change in Wormtongue's character, which I'm sure many others did pick up on. It's hardly a very revealing review, and for some reason degenerates into Star Wars bashing near the end. Is this a common style of review by a professional? It's not one that I've really encountered before. Would the reviewers for The Ten Commandments say "yeah, this film kicked Ben Hur's butt"?
