Everything excellent but weak story line
I just watched the movie. I haven't read the books and I am watching this movie for the first time. I haven't seen the previous attempts as well.
I felt that the whole effort of the movie was put into graphics, cinematography, and music score. Till this, it was perfectly well made. But where the movie was lacking, was the storyline. It was very weak. It just couldn't match with the hype of everything else. This is my view.
