After reading the news on Cinemagia, on the launch of an online unofficial/private-funded prequel to the Lord of the Rings series, called Born of Hope, I decided to visit the official website of Born of Hope, to further investigate the matter.
The movie lasts for a bit over 1 hour and proves somewhat entertaining.
Disclaimer: Given that LotR overall impressed me to 50-60%, maybe I'm not the best to judge it.
My opinion:
- It appears to follow the same framework and story telling style as Lord of the Rings. The atmosphere overall resembles the one from LotR.
- For the incredibly small budget they had and given the actors played for free, it's a good movie.
- Compared to any interesting movie, it did no touch me.
- The movie mostly resembles a soap opera in my opinion, not some exciting / interesting / thriller-like / action-like movie.
- The story... well, I see no story.
- Watching it might be fun however - it's relaxing and might prove an enjoyable experience.
Conclusion:
The movie did not impress me. However, the fans of the series might enjoy it.
I do recommend you to watch it - it's relaxing and might prove an enjoyable experience.
Hint:
One might want to download the movie and watch it playing from one's computer instead of streaming from the Internet. A solution for downloading the movie might be using Fast Video Download or Flash Got. That's how I did it. Enjoy!
