It is? I heard good things about the film too. Legolas Send a noteboard - 16/11/2015 07:43:10 PM

View original postAtmospheric and certainly intriguing. A pity the film is apparently dire.

Though casting Scarlett Johansson seems a little odd given how Isserley is described in the book - and I can see how that might be a bad sign for the rest of the film, but then again it could still be good. Will have to find out some time.

Either way, Faber is a genius, but we knew that before.
