I watched this on a whim last night and I loved it. It was beautiful and had the luxurious pacing of a classic epic.
My only regret is not seeing it in the theater, but I'll definitely be seeing the sequel there.

It’s started it’s HBO run; I am sure I will watch it at some point.
Already won two technical Oscars; sound and cinematography.

I hope they rerelease the first one in theaters before the second comes out. I'd love to see it on the big screen.
