i'm not quite a big big fan of parodies, but i really ended up liking this one:)! i was constantly chuckling about the little stupid jokes they put and sometimes really laughed out loud. i think most of the jokes won't get to foreigners since they are very swiss-related and i think that's why i found it so funny, since they use tiny things to make fun of the swiss culture, or to show it off:)! i specially loved when they were swearing - i mean, when do we ever get to hear that in a movie, in our own language:)?! i found the similarities between the actors and the "real" actors of lord of the rings quite stunning and somehow the funniest - because it made you think of the real "LOTR" actors in a stupid situation like in "the ring thing". (it reminded me a lot of the "very secret diaries" of LOTR). the characters played their role very well, i specially liked the spoiled elven girl and the parody of gollum - i couldn't stop stunning about how good they did their job! what i also really liked is that in comparison to other parodies you can actually sometimes even see their low budget solutions in the movie which somehow made it even funnier - specially the opening sequence which i found very well done:)! if you are open minded for a different culture and like parodies with lots of stupid jokes in it then you're going to like this one:)! try it!!!
