Review of Tolkien

I do like Nicolas Holt as an actor and the storey of the great man himself is to say the least an interesting one, also filmed in the north of England not bloody Northern Ireland where they seem to hand out grants to anybody with a lens. Supporting actors competent enough, lighting and direction usual ABC stuff expected from a film school graduate. A missed chance I feel to really tell this storey with a difference and not follow the template of other biogs the budget was $20,000,000 or around there if I was investing my hard earned in this I would have expected something with a little more bite and less predictable. 5/10 could do better...A LOT BETTER!
