I will have to wait until 10 days after it is released to see it
(Although I am going to Morocco instead). I've read a few of reviews, and there seems to be a couple of trends. There are some that go for all out praise of the film, saying they've done complete justice to the book and Tolkein, etc.... Then there are the some from reviewers who obviously have some bug-bear about LOTR, and give it muted praise. As for comparisons to Harry Potter, I wouldn't like to say. I'm not a HP fan, but I have seent he film. I found it a bit drawn out and there was very little plot, most of which was nicked from other stories. One huge problem I have about it is blatent favouritism thoughout it. Having said that I've seen far worse films, and it was kind of enjoyable to watch for 2.5 hours, and not really dwell on too much. I don't think it can be compared to LOTR, but I don't think it was meant to. I think this comparason is only being made by people who are going to make money out of this whole 'battle'.
