In a hole in the ground there lived a hobbit...

Date of Review:  Dec 4, 2003
The Bottom Line: A moderately successful adaptation.
Review: With those words, J.R.R. Tolkien began writing his famed fantasy/adventure novel "The Hobbit", set in a fictional Middle Earth. In 1977, Jules Bass and Arthur Rankin Jr. would work together to produce this not bad/not great animated TV movie. "The...

The Greatest Adventure

Date of Review:  Mar 8, 2000
Review: How do you go about transforming a 300-page legendary work of literature into an animated feature less than an hour and a half long? Not very easily. But the creators of this movie made a go of it, and the result was not bad...not bad at all. The...

The Spirit is True

Date of Review:  Nov 29, 1999
Review: Way back when I was in sixth grade, the Macy's Thanksgiving Day parade had a float in it which had a bunch of dwarves, a wizard, and a big red Dragon. Orson Bean, who did the voice of Bilbo Baggins in the Rankin Bass adaptation, was the cohost of...

Tricks Are For Hobbits

Date of Review:  Aug 21, 2001
The Bottom Line: Better than Bakshi
Review: Better than the Bakshi version of "The Lord Of the Rings" that tanked at the box office, and due to remain the only filmed version of Tolkein's first book in his saga, this uneven, but entertaining made for TV cartoon is the best adaptation of...

Pack Your Things...You're Going on a Magical Journey

Date of Review:  Aug 19, 2000
Review: Although I wouldn't recommend this movie for small children, I would definitely recommend it for children of the ages 9 and above (that includes all of you adults out there).

We are in a time when most television programs, and even movies...

The Hobbit

Date of Review:  Dec 10, 2006
The Bottom Line: This movie is a well produced animation of a popular book
Review: Plot Details: This opinion reveals minor details about the movie's plot.
As a fan of J.R.R Tolkien I was skeptical to see this movie it might ruin the book that I enjoy so much. But all worries aside I decided to see the movie. It is not as...

The Hobbit

Date of Review:  Sep 14, 2001
The Bottom Line: The bottom line is that it is a good movie to see. It brings to life the journey and helps your imagination picture the story.
Review: I saw this movie to see if the characters that I had pictured would be the same on the screen. My imagination is more
vivid it seems. The movies brings to life the story for all to enjoy. For those that may not have been able to picture the...

A Classic Come Alive

Date of Review:  Jan 24, 2000
Review: In a time when movies have seemed to replace books, this is one way to entice your child to read a book. The movie stays pretty true to the book, which I like in a movie. Also, it doesn't tell the whole story, which leaves an opening for you to get...

Date of Review:  Jan 27, 2000
Review: Having read the book as a child I was excited at the prospect of viewing 'The Hobbit' on video with my children.

The cartoon is not up to Disney standards and the sound quality left a little to be desired. The story was changed...
