    Great animation. To this day no other animation has the drama of the drawn and colorized characters of this movie. It would be nice to see someone make the second half of this movie. The cost of the Tolkien rights have to be astronomical but the technologies at movie makers today are within reason to finally complete this epic.

  • Critic Reviews of "The Lord of the Rings"

    Chicago Reader

    It looked terrible then and it still does: cartoon characters move differently from live actors, and the attempt to duplicate natural movement ends in stylistic incoherence.

    Variety
    July 07, 2010

    Quite simply, those who do not know the characters of Middle Earth going in will not know them coming out.

    Time Out
    February 09, 2006

    Bakshi's version, using animation and live-action tracings, is uniformly excellent, sticking closely to the original text and visually echoing many of Tolkien's own drawings.

    New York Times
    May 09, 2005

    The film is visually compelling even when murk overtakes the narrative.

    Chicago Sun-Times
    October 23, 2004

    Falls far short of the charm and sweep of the original story.

    Slate
    November 24, 2001

    A showcase for inspired imagery and sheer strangeness, a near-miss magnum opus from another era, before the cult of Tolkien went Hollywood.

    TV Guide
    December 03, 2012

    Tolkien fans, who are familiar with novels, will find it enjoyble, while others may be confused by the action.

    PopMatters
    December 03, 2012

    Innovative and beautiful, cheesy and disjointed.

    Empire Magazine
    December 03, 2012

    What most people remember is the mix of the live-action tracing within the traditional animation and just how effectively creepy it managed to be, but for the time this did a pretty good job of adapting the dense novels.

    Antagony & Ecstasy
    November 25, 2012

    It's a reckless film, blitzing through some plot points and stalling out over others; the lack of a particular rhythm does not do it any favors, and it is certainly not a fast 133 minutes.

    Not Coming to a Theater Near You
    October 14, 2011

    A contemporary viewing of The Lord of the Rings is an exercise in outlandishness as well as nostalgia: dreamlike, peculiar.

    Common Sense Media
    August 03, 2010

    Animated adventure too dated and dark for younger kids.
