Le Seigneur des anneaux

This film is a low budget experiment that is very much a product of its time and full of shoddy production values, yet it is also very endearing as a personal experiment. There is an odd mix of art styles including rotoscoping against psychedelic backgrounds. Sometimes this works, creating an otherworldly atmosphere. Sometimes this style is just confusing, inconsistent and messy. Everything is quite a mixed bag, actually. Some of the character designs are dumpy but others are quite heroic. Some of the voice acting is laughable but some of it is emotional and booming. Some of the music is cheesy but some of it is genuinely riveting. The story itself is extremely condensed to its basics but it works well, up until the end when it suddenly cuts off.
