It was OK, nothing new that I haven't already known as a Tolkien fan, but it was nice to see the places related to Tolkien and some historical footage as well as Tolkien's original manuscripts (I love his handwriting) and fragments of interviews with Tolkien himself and his son Christopher. Though the mention of the radical right and neo-nazis in the context of Tolkien definitely spoiled the documentary for me, it was a big minus. And his friend CS Lewis was mentioned only once or twice in passing and their friendship was not discussed in greated detail at all.
