Right have finished it..save your seventy seven pences. He hates Tolkien, he hates the history, the geography, the languages, the songs, makes various factual errors, claim you can't tell who is speaking when virtually every character has their own ideolect. Basically he hates middle earth and just wants an action movie. Seemingly involving drunken Lesbian gunslingers.

Draw your own conclusions. It is just a smart alecky rant.
