As far as plot goes it was a very true rendition, yes. While that's an element of what makes the movies a bit bloated, most of what I'm talking about when I criticize the trilogy comes down to filmmaking techniques like forced grandiose tracking shots, by-the-numbers score, cheap goofy humour, Transatlantic accents, and a load of other items. I still think that the movies range from 7-8/10.
