Valutazione di melissa.ricks
As most viewers who write comments on IMDb, I watch a lot of movies. I'm always looking for one that is a bit off-beat with stand-out characters and stay-on-my-mind quality. This is one of those films; primarily due to Vince Vaughn's engaging performance. What a thrilling portrayl of an intoxicating, infectious character!
All of us who love Tolkein were excited to see this film, but be honest. This is not Best Picture material. It is little more than The Mummy or The Mummy returns. Endless chase scenes and special effects. No real acting. No real character development. No real complex and engaging story line. The film never drew me in and made me part of the action nor endeared me to any of the characters. A good fantasy... a good movie of any genre, pulls you in, makes you feel like you could be there, allows you to feel empathy. The Wizard of Oz does this. Star Wars did this. Lord of the Rings does not.
My breath was taken away at how beautiful the Hobbit Shire was portrayed. It was outstanding, but the rest of the movie gave way to one horrible chase scene after another. Worse than a big screen video game because you couldn't interact with it and you couldn't turn it off.
I was also horrified that adults took their small children to see this. A little girl who was sitting behind me was terrified through the entire movie. Ugly, scary, drippy creatures... endless computer generation. Three hours of "I wish this would end" stress. No the kind of creative "what's going to happen next" scene creation. More like a slasher movie gone computerized.
I was keenly disappointed.

I was looking forward to this movie. I like road trip thrillers. I like sex, drugs, youth, action and a great sound track. And I was especially interested in taking the movie trip across Europe to see if I recognized any of my own travel spots.
From the first scene, however, this movie was unwatchable. What was Guy doing driving on the wrong side of the road? What could possibly have blown up the van that rolled gracefully down a shallow grassy incline? If they're such bad drivers, why would they take a delivery job? And that's just the first scene! Not even bad enough to be campy or silly. Just Horrible! Horrible! Horrible! Waste of time. Move on to something... anything else!
