I'm not a Tolkien superfan, and for me it was mostly just kind of boring.

Also, this portrayal of Middle Earth seems to have very limited ontological inertia. Everything not on screen might as well not exist. Even the things that are shown feel static and shallow, like there isn't enough "stuff" to actually fill out the world and support the complex societies within.
