Fine follow-up with rousing climax despite slow midsection

Fine follow-up to Fellowship follows in the same vein. The midsection of the film is slow and drags a bit. However it builds to a rousing battle. Acting honours go to Andy Serkis for his Gollum, a malevolent yet pathetic creation worthy of Shakespeare though there are no weak links.
