posedat Review of Ring of the Nibelungs

Ring of the Nibelungs (2004 TV Movie)

a fairly decent movie with good screenplay about inspired from the real story of "das nibelungenlied"

[7/10 · 7 November 2005]

although the flick was somewhat dragged through mud by some people who commented on who played the parts and how well chosen they were for that it is my belief that the movie is much better because... like many other versions before it, it respects a certain guideline of the actual story "das nibelungenlied". Although the fight scenes are impressive at times it is not that which the makers intended. these scenes appear this way because in the written version of the story they are presented with a certain grandeur and dramatic value. all in all.. this may not be the best movie ever made on this subject.. but it is a damned good one and one can see the actual striding of the filming cast and crew to make it what it is. now just buy or rent it, stop reading about other peoples opinions about it.
