Personality assessment

Peter Jackson is a truly outstanding filmmaker, who has created an unparalleled film legend. (The original comment was provided by Kevin, CEO of Warner Bros.) Most of his early works were thrillers, but there was no lack of humor, and he was good at using computer stunts to present strange visual effects. With the world's recognition of films such as "Crowds of corpses crossing the border" and "Evil Angels", he has also become one of the few horror film directors who have won the respect of the mainstream media. (Qingdao News Network Review)

Based on the weak film foundation in New Zealand, Peter Jackson was keenly aware of the trend of the times, and finally established its own film kingdom under the siege of lack of funds and technology. His films The Lord of the Rings Trilogy and The Hobbit Trilogy are masterpieces of art and commerce. The perfect combination of technology and humanistic feelings makes the film bring shock to the audience beyond the visual appearance. The implementation of this route not only presents an unprecedented virtual world for the audience, but also gives this film with the theme of the real world special life and motivation.
