Query: Misses the Mark

A successful fantasy requires more than special effects, action, dwarves, white horses, evil villains and pretty women. I felt like the director really wanted this to be comparable to Lord of the Rings. It's so very much not. Without a good screenplay, the remaining elements are merely window dressing. This story was sloppy, flat, predictable, and tedious. The dramatic pans, sweeping landscapes and musical score couldn't prop up what simply wasn't there.
