I enjoyed the movie a lot. Great sets/costumes, great casting, super special effects, wonderful soundtrack, great action scenes, so-so script. Merry and Pippin needed to be developed more, and their conspiracy to join Frodo and Sam should have been in the movie. Legolas and Gimli need to be developed more. The Council of Elrond scene needs to be longer........I give the movie an 8 out 10 rating, but when the Directors Cut DVD is released, I am sure it will be higher.
