Movie Reviews

Seanax.com - 9/10 by Sean Axmaker... dark and fantastical with a mature approach rare in animated films of its day, and Bakshi's rotoscope process creates an unusually fluid and expressive style.
PopMatters - 8/10 by Sabadino ParkerInnovative and beautiful, cheesy and disjointed.
Filmcritic.com - 8/10 by Christopher NullThe hobbits all look like Joey Lawrence -- what's up with that?
Decent Films Guide - 7/10 by Steven D. GreydanusAt its best, Bakshi's visualization of Tolkien's world can be startlingly effective… Tolkien fans will appreciate what Bakshi managed to get right.
Variety - 6/10 by Variety StaffQuite simply, those who do not know the characters of Middle Earth going in will not know them coming out.
Chicago Sun-Times - 6/10 by Roger EbertFalls far short of the charm and sweep of the original story.
New York Times - 6/10 by Vincent CanbyThe film is visually compelling even when murk overtakes the narrative.
Greenwich Village Gazette - 5/10 by Eric LurioIt is here we see Bakshi "jump the shark..."
Chicago Reader - 4/10 by Dave KehrIt 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.
Not Coming to a Theater Near You - 4/10 by Michael NordineA contemporary viewing of The Lord of the Rings is an exercise in outlandishness as well as nostalgia: dreamlike, peculiar.
