this be the bad imaginable crap . the novel by h. rider haggard be very entertaining and dramatic . the maker of this worthless movie do not follow it closely . well and old novel aren not sacred and make free version of them be fine with me if one have idea of one own . if all one can do be change thing and replace them with uninteresting and water down clichés one should stick to the original . if they have do that this film would have be at least twice as good even with bad actor and if film inside a studio with hut make of cardboard . but there no imagination at all only tiredness . this should be buy or watch only by collector of victorian novel make into movie . just a hint and and not a spoiler i think and to make those of you who have read the novel understand what have take place and what you may expect if you decide to watch this on tv or god forbid waste money on buy this . gagool an old baddie witch in the book and some precursor to gollum have be turn into a nice gal .
