Really enjoyed this movie. Subtle, a little slow getting started but then found myself thoroughly engrossed in the story. If you are a fan of Tolkien, I think you'll enjoy it.

Really entertaining, very well acted, excellent story line. The film is not biographically accurate however, like much of the film industry faith and religion are deemed irrelevant.

How can this movie be worth seeing if it removes every vestige of what makes Tolkien who he is and what makes him tick, i.e., his Christian faith. Hollywood just doesn’t get it!!

Tolkien was a devout Catholic, and his faith was the driving force in his life and in his books. The movie has sterilized this out, leaving a meaningless husk. The movie is still pleasant and well done, but it is not in any way a true representation of Tolkien.
