I took the Mrs for a second viewing.I take back nothing! Really a great motion picture and a fine interpretation.A six hour movie, or six movies to cover the epic, would be commercially impossible.Peter Jackson is to be commended for a spectacular job. Over all, it is truer to the books than I thought it would be, at least in spirit.And for those reading so far down a spoiler thread:Balrogs got wings.
