Since 2010, the We Hate Movies podcast has been loudly celebrating and tearing apart movies from across the spectrum: from forgotten '80s actioners and insane romantic comedies of the '90s, to the early CGI blockbusters of the aughts and the hyper-nostalgic franchises of the 2010s and today. Every week, comedians Andrew Jupin, Stephen Sajdak, Eric Szyszka, and Chris Cabin pick a movie from the near-past to discuss and joke around about in all its positive and negative glory.

Rated PG-13

Kevin says THE LORD OF THE RINGS: THE WAR OF THE ROHIRRIM kinda rocks!
THE LORD OF THE RINGS returns to theaters, this time in animated form.
THE LORD OF THE RINGS: THE WAR OF THE ROHIRRIM mines Tolkien’s appendices for the history of Helm’s Deep, the site of a major battle in THE TWO TOWERS. We go back in Middle Earth’s history when a conflict between two houses sends one on the run. Childhood friends on either side must try to reconcile their differences to save their families.
The choice of traditional 2D animation, led by famous anime director Kenji Kamiyama, brings The Lord of the Rings full circle with Ralph Bakshi’s 1978 theatrical film and THE HOBBIT TV movie. It’s an entirely appropriate medium that allows the film to embody its own universe without relying on special effects gimmickry.
The voice cast is strong, and the action in animated form is impressive. However we have seen a lot of this before, and the complex background may be lost on anyone but die-hard Tolkien fans.
I appreciate the franchise’s return to big-screen spectacle, and the animation plays well in that scope.
THE LORD OF THE RINGS: THE WAR OF THE ROHIRRIM gets three and a half swords out of five. I’m Kevin Carr, and that’s the way I see it.
