The Lord of the Rings - The Fellowship of the Ring (2001,  PG-13)
The Lord of the Rings - The Fellowship of the Ring
Peter Jackson did a brilliant job with this. Even though many things have to change to deal with the sheer length of the book, it's an excellent well done film.

The Lord of the Rings - The Two Towers (2002,  PG-13)
The Lord of the Rings - The Two Towers
The story continues and Peter Jackson does not disappoint. The effects are stunning! I've been waiting literally decades for the trilogy to come to the screen and at least Peter Jackson knew how to do it right. However, I did not like the way Faramir was treated in the movie. In the book, he recognized the ring for what it was and strongly keep himself from it. In this movie, he was more like Boromir, his brother in wanting the ring. That's not Faramir at all. Still and all, I loved the movie!

The Lord of the Rings - The Return of the King (2003,  PG-13)
The Lord of the Rings - The Return of the King
A brilliant conclusion to the trilogy. I was very satisfied. I would have liked to have seen the hobbits dealing with the problems at the Shire as in the book, but I know they had to cut it back. Well, all in all, I was pleased with all three movies.

Photographing Fairies (1998,  R)
Photographing Fairies
What is so fantastic about this movie is how it ends. The characters are well played. Ben Kingsley is brilliant as always.

El Laberinto del Fauno (Pan's Labyrinth) (2006,  R)
El Laberinto del Fauno (Pan's Labyrinth)
This movie was so amazing. It's not for everyone though. If you are sensitive to movie violence, this movie is not for you. The ending was brilliant. I totally forgot this movie was in Spanish, I was so engrossed in it.

A.I. Artificial Intelligence (2001,  PG-13)
A.I. Artificial Intelligence
This movie is so moving. I esp. love the end. I was so touched. I don't think anyone could have played the part better than Haley Joel Osment. That kid is pure genius. Oh, Jude Law was such a hoot as the robotic gigolo!

Pirates of the Caribbean - The Curse of the Black Pearl (2003,  PG-13)
Pirates of the Caribbean - The Curse of the Black Pearl
I don't think I can say anything that's not already been said. This flick totally entertains. Pure Disney adventure!

Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest (2006,  PG-13)
Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest
Brilliant. Davy Jones is certainly well done in this piece. There is so much action and an exciting ending that leaves you looking forward to the third...

Excalibur (1981,  R)
Excalibur
I have always been fascinated by the Arthurian Legends. This is a well done piece with some wonderful actors.
10
The Mists of Avalon (2001,  Unrated)
The Mists of Avalon
This brilliant piece based on the novel by the late Marion Zimmer Bradley shows the view of Morgan Le Fay in what happened during the time of Arthur. Anjelica Huston is brilliant as Viviane. This movie is about the women of Camelot and the choices they make.
