Featured review
Funny, and with ukuleles
The whole cast of "Who the 'Ell is Tauriel" were involved in the making of the Hobbit movie, so they know those movies in detail. Plus, some at least have nerd-level knowledge of the works of JRR Tolkien. The interplay between Tolkien nerddom and Hobbit-movie insiderhood makes for a delightful little spoof. (Official end of review)
For a review, IMDb requires at least 10 lines.
But let's face it, "Who the 'Ell is Tauriel" is only 6 minutes long, so 10 lines of review is a bit of a stretch.
There's a lot of guitar-plunking, and some mass running and skipping about in the forest.
The forest, which plays a supporting role, is actually a remnant Kohekohe grove in the Raroa reserve, Pukerua Bay. And Pukerua Bay is the seaside village where Peter Jackson grew up. So there you go.
