...when you're not tired.

LOTR is not about "action" sequences. It's *not* at all a typical action/swords & sorcery, beat 'em bang up kill the bad guys and it's over kind of film. It's what happens *between* the action seqyences that's key, otherwise you son't understand the struggle or its resolution.

Like the book, LOTR the film is about how power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely; about the passing of an age and the loss of innocence; about the nature of courage and the need for sacrifice; about friendship, loyalty, love and faith. It's a lament for a different, nobler age and sorrow at the devastation of nature by rmapant industrialization.

For starters. There's a good and evil thing going on too.
