It's a good "Tolkien" style story, maybe not a hit compared to the book, but in general a good movie.

I disagree that this movie is a waste of time - maybe if you know the book and have high expectations because you know the story, but if you just want to relax and see a nice movie I think it'll do the trick very nicely.



When I've seen it, I have noticed some slight technical problems, like scenes sometimes do not fade from one to another to well, some special effect are not done as well as they could be, but in general I am happy



I've seen the movie, and I am quite sad that it's yet another movie that probably would be appreciated in the US if this nation was a bit more opened to "not American" and would go through a bit more work to import stuff from Europe. Of course Poland should make it's efforts to advertise the movie to the West.



The acting, imho, has been quite good, mixing up serious, magic and funny points quite well. especially the main 2 characters were quite impresively played.



If you ever come across this movie, and you like Tolkien type of story, I really think it will not be time wasted.
