Chronology
A sudden attack by the cunning and treacherous Rohan lord Wulf, seeking to avenge his father’s death, forces King Helm Hammerhand of Rohan and his men to make a daring last stand at the ancient fortress of Hornburg. The film is narrated by Miranda Otto as Éowyn, reprising her role from Sir Peter Jackson’s The Lord of the Rings series. The Warner Brothers Animation logo is briefly displayed in Japanese kanji, paying homage to the film’s anime style. .
Sony Concord Failed!
Presented by YellowFlash 2: FlashCast: Wukong Monkey Man SALT! Star Wars Acolytes Abolition HAOSS! (2024). Unfortunately for The Rohirrim War, the end result is a film that struggles to engage the viewer by offering a flat and predictable narrative.
The anime-style animations lack depth and often look confusing
The character designs also feel generic and forgettable, leaving no mark on the hearts of the audience. The story, centered on Helm’s defense against Hammerhand, is a wasted opportunity to explore the inner dynamics of Rohan. The story drags on, lacking twists and moments of real emotion. The dialogue is often banal and repetitive, failing to reflect the complexity of the characters and their motivations.
The film suffers from a slow pace and excessive length
Many sequences are unnecessary and artificially extend the duration, boring the viewer. The lack of pace and memorable moments makes it difficult to engage with the story. The lack of originality and courage in the story is the biggest flaw of this feature film. "The Lord of the Rings: The War of the Rohirrim" is a film that disappoints on every level.
A wasted opportunity to explore an exciting period in Middle-earth
Boredom, a flat plot, and uninspiring animation make this film a disappointment for fans of the saga.
