Product Description

Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring (DVD) (WS)

In the first part of J.R.R. Tolkien's epic masterpiece, The Lord of the Rings, a shy young hobbit named Frodo Baggins inherits a simple gold ring. He knows the ring has power, but not that he alone holds the secret to the survival--or enslavement--of the entire world. Now Frodo, accompanied by a wizard, an elf, a dwarf, two men and three loyal hobbit friends, must become the greatest hero the world has ever known to save the land and the people he loves.

Amazon.com

As the triumphant start of a trilogy, The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring leaves you begging for more. By necessity, Peter Jackson's ambitious epic compresses J.R.R. Tolkien's classic The Lord of the Rings, but this robust adaptation maintains reverent allegiance to Tolkien's creation, instantly qualifying as one of the greatest fantasy films ever made. At 178 minutes, it's long enough to establish the myriad inhabitants of Middle-earth, the legendary Rings of Power, and the fellowship of hobbits, elves, dwarves, and humans--led by the wizard Gandalf (Ian McKellen) and the brave hobbit Frodo (Elijah Wood)--who must battle terrifying forces of evil on their perilous journey to destroy the One Ring in the land of Mordor. Superbly paced, the film is both epic and intimate, offering astonishing special effects and production design while emphasizing the emotional intensity of Frodo's adventure. Ending on a perfect note of heroic loyalty and rich anticipation, this wondrous fantasy continues in The Two Towers (2002). --Jeff Shannon

The extended version is incredibly worth it if you read the books!!

Reviewed in the United States on April 30, 2019

Verified Purchase

Wow! I wasn't expecting to be so impressed with the deleted scenes in the extended version of this and the other films of the trilogy.

If you read the books, you will really enjoy the added details that they decided to remove for the film's major release.

These scenes reveal more of the lore and charm that make sense if you know the backstory but wouldn't make sense to the larger audience.

I'm so glad I decided to add the extended versions to my digital library, and only disappointed that it took me so long to realize they might be awesome.

A beautifully movie that the extended version only enhances!

Reviewed in the United States on October 1, 2017

I have loved both books and movies since I was a small boy. I loved the written word and I loved losing myself in a movie. As I got older, it grew harder and harder to enjoy either, but this movie (and the other two) brought that joy back. What amazed me is how Jackson and Friends (Fran and Phillipa were not given enough credit... if you listen to the commentary, you will find that these two women were instrumental in keeping the movies faithful to the book. Their insight was extraordinary.) mated the two media together in a way that should have satisfied all but the most ardent Tolkien fans. the ones who think it a sin not to incorporate every word into the movies, thereby making them unwatchable. I think that the ghost of Tolkien had to be looking over their shoulders and whispering. What is amazing to me is how many ways it could have failed. The casting was perfect. The cinematography was impeccable. The script, the score, the costumes, the FX, the editing, etc. I cannot praise this movie enough since I think it will be a long time before we see anything like it again. Cate Blanchett's voice opening on the black screen with that beautiful, soulful violin piece can send shivers down my spine. Showing Isildur's fall was more than I could have hoped to see at the beginning (extended cut helps this tremendously). This is a movie that was helped a lot by the extended and added scenes. Many times you may look at the additional scenes from a movie only to find that the editor did the right thing by cutting them out. With FOTR extended, you get a fuller, richer unfolding of a timeless classic. And in the few areas where some things were changed, they worked for me. Giving Arwen's character a more active role as well as replacing Glorfindel's throw away lines was to my mind a stroke of genius. Nearly all of her story is taken from the appendices and so is therefore pretty accurate. And casting Liv Tyler was awesome. She looked like an elf! Another thing that could have ruined the movie was incorporating the languages. But Elvish is beautiful and it was incredible to listen to it spoken. Anyway, if you are not a fan, then my words cannot sway you. If you just watched the movies once and were thinking of them again, I hoped I inspired you to take another, closer look at them.

Peter Jackson really brought Tolkien's words to life

Reviewed in the United States on August 6, 2020

Verified Purchase

Each one of the Lord of the Rings films had a theme. For this, the first one it was the toll the quest to destroy the Ring would take upon the Fellowship made up of Frodo, Gandalf, Aragorn, Samwise, Gimli, Pippin, Merry, Legolas, and Boromir. They would lose members and break apart raising the question of whether they could fulfill their task right at the start.

The reason for the Fellowship was the coming evil which so many in Middle Earth, the name for Tolkien’s world, were unaware of. Frodo and his friends gained knowledge of this threat when they run into the Nazgul, the cursed souls of dead human kings who worked for Sauron. There’s a great scene where Frodo, Samwise, Merry and Pippin are hiding from one of them and all kinds of bugs start literally crawling out of the woodwork drawn by the dark presence. It was creepy and did a great job conveying the evil and challenges that the characters would face.

The movie didn’t stick exactly to the book, but it was still an amazing adventure. Besides Sauron and the Nazgul there are Orcs and demons representing evil. There’s magic in the form of the wizards Gandalf and Saruman. There are Elves and Dwarves. There’s betrayal. There’s swordplay. There’s wonder. It’s all a great mix and Peter Jackson really did an outstanding job bringing to life Tolkien’s words into life in this movie.

Extraordinarily well done

In our family, some are big fans of Tolkien, some didn't care for the books. This film managed to delight both camps. As for me, I started the movie fully expecting to walk away and find something else to do, because I easily get turned off/bored by action movies and violence. This time, I was glued to the screen for the whole 3 hours. Although there are violent scenes, the editing is so skillful, that I never got to my usual "OK, I get the point. . . move on".

This movie is worth watching for the sets alone.
This movie is worth watching for the acting alone.
This movie is worth watching for the editing alone.
This movie is worth watching for the cinematography alone.
When you put them all together, it's a wonderful experience.
Oh, yeah, and the story works too ;-)

An all time fave

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on December 23, 2018

Verified Purchase

It was 2001, and my partner was trying to persuade me to go and see this movie. I frankly wasn't keen. I was convinced this book was unfilmable, not to mention 'nerdy.' But, she insisted, and given that I'd made her see several films against her will, I figured it was only fair that I watched one of her choices.

Well, the star rating will tell you what I thought. I was absolutely blown away by this movie. Just everything is top notch. The performances. The action. The score. The cinematography. Finally, I knew how everyone felt back in '77 watching Star Wars. I couldn't wait to see The Two Towers! And yet I had to. In the meantime i consoled myself by going to watch Fellowship again. I remember every other movie I saw that year seemed... ordinary. Spider-Man, Potter... because the bar had been set so high.

I do hope that one day it will get a theatrical re release. Because as great as it is on DVD, nothing beats the cinematic experience.

I purchased all of the limited edition box sets of the extended version of these films on dvd when they 1st came out, and rather than ruin them by keep getting them out of the box thought i would grab them on bluray instead.

The films for me just never age, they are, as a trilogy, my favourite films of all time. The bluray is spectacular and i feel as though i am watching the films for the 1st time.

Great to chill out on a sunday with.

Huge improvement

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on February 21, 2017

Verified Purchase

Much much better than the cinema release version, so many extra bits that were left out are now in their rightful place, whole scenes that now make much more sense, we will not be watching the original again not now we have this 100% better replacement, it's longer, but worth it, I am now looking for other extended cut films, if they improve them to this extent.

A really good adaptation of the book

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on January 5, 2017

A really good adaptation of the book. I loved the book & this is really brings it to life. Good quality acting & Peter Jackson, in my mind, has got the personalities of the characters spot on & the actors are all excelent in their respective roles. Quality special effects. The extended special edition fills out some of the characters (Gimli specifically). Quality film.

Distortion of Tolkien

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on December 11, 2021

Verified Purchase

I very much agree with Mike Heron's earlier review. The product description excusing the omission of Tom Bombadil and the replacing of Glorfindel with Arwen shows a lack of respect for the original work. The appearance of Elf archers at Helm's Deep is explicitly contrary to the book. While much in the films is very good, the reverse plagiarism (incorrect association of the producer's or director's storylines and characters with those in the books) suggests that the producers/directors either have not the ability to create their own stories or that they are primarily interested in making money.
