Troma Entertainment opened its doors in 1974 and – like Roger Corman, who created B-movies and served as a proving ground to great talent – launched the careers of innumerable talents in front of and behind the camera: James Gunn, Eli Roth, Samuel L. Jackson, Vincent D'Onofrio, and Marisa Tomei to name a few.
I have trouble with movies that are three hours long - the Skittles never make it to the end, and unless you get the jumbo drink for eleven dollars, you get thirsty. Having said that, The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring was time well spent. The movie keeps moving, with only one or two slow parts.
By all accounts the first film installment of J.R.R. Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings trilogy is a cinematic success.
One would think that in preparation to write a review for one of the biggest movies opening this year, one would have prepared a little. Perhaps one would have read the book that said movie is based upon. Or, given that there wasn't enough time to read the book, one may have done a little research to make up for one's ignorance on the subject.
