I thought Mirando Otto's look and acting was fine, but she didn't sell the swordfighting scenes for me. It was in the way she moved... like she never put her full weight into a swing or anything like that. I know you're not supposed to really hit people hard, but you're supposed to look like you are. Never got that from her and it made the whole battle with the Witch-King slightly anticlimactic. :(

It's funny because she got a lot of praise from the stunt team for not being a natural swordfighter but working really hard and dedicating herself to it.

Oh, I don't doubt her work ethic or that she tried hard. I just noticed the end result was rather lacking, and that surprised me when I saw the movie for the first time. She handles weapons rather gingerly. When you watch professional stuntmen fight, the difference is like night and day.

I agree. I guess I'm so used to actresses having shitty fight scenes and fight choreography in movies it didn't even stand out to me that much. :(

Yeah. I think it only stood out because everyone else in the movie was very good, especially Viggo Mortensen.

Well, you can't really compare anyone to Viggo. He was the one willing to injuries himself and then work with said injuries. He was the one who added the sharpening stone because he knew that the sword in reality would go dull.

Basically, Viggo is a level all his own and you can't really compare him.

I mentioned Viggo because he was a standout, but the others all did great jobs as well. I just thought Miranda Otto was a significant notch below the rest of the cast... even if you exclude the amazing Viggo Mortensen. :)
