Controversial animator Ralph Bakshi's literal adaptation of J.R.R. Tolkien's classic fantasy trilogy, The Lord of the Rings, is brought to the screen in a reverent, stilted way, with Bakshi forsaking his sharp-edged animated looniness for a rotoscoped dullness.

The forces of good give his nephew Frodo the choice to bear the awful burden of the ring to a place where it may be destroyed. Clarke Fountain, Rovi
