is inherent in all evaluations of film and other art forms.
Having said that, my (wholly subjective) view is that, even without reference to the book, to Tolkien's universe and metapysics or any other so-called "purist" concerns, that standing in a vacuum they are bad movies, in the same sense that Ishtar or Gigli or Plan 9 from Outer Space or The Last Jedi are bad movies. I'm not going to write an essay on all the ways in which they exemplify poor filmmaking, since it won't change any minds. After all, there are those who unaccountably think Kiss was a good band, and you can't change their minds either
