I dunno about anyone else, but i trust film/book/food critics about as much as i trust politicians. The only true critique anyone can offer is one of two outcomes.

a. I liked it

b. I didn't like it.

Simple as that imho.

if i had only viewed films the critics gave the thumbs up too and ignored films the critics panned, i would have missed out on psycho, fightclub, scrooged, predator and the shining to name a few..........

I really did enjoy the LOTR trilogy but am under no illusion that you can stretch 300 pages of narrative and dialogue into 3 full length feature films without shall we say embellishing the plot slightly. i haven't seen the Hobbit yet, but am looking forward to seeing Martin Freeman as Bilbo, he is an actor whose work i enjoy, Hitchikers was excellent and the Nativity kids movie he did was so much fun and so moving at this time of year.  Roll on the new year :)
