This isn't like Dead Man's Chest, this is serious entertainment...

Rating: 10/10 (23 October 2011)

Honestly, I was scared that the movie will go down after Fellowship's great success. I felt the same before watching Aliens, Bourne 2, Pirates of the Caribbean 2, etc. But, they made it...
The first part only had a single story line. This time there are many things happening at once. In this part, the tension is raised. More characters are introduced who will play crucial roles in the next part. The feeling of hope, despair and absence of lost ones was captured very beautifully in this movie as though there is a continuous flow of energy. This movie enhances these feelings and we get attached to the characters. This movie is also rich in imagery. Each and every character is given equal importance, not just Frodo and Sam, as they too are a part of this war.
This movie is also well-known for Gollum: the double-minded creature who is stuck in a to-be-or-not-to-be state. He is the character who does poetic justice to the book and keeps the thrill never-ending.
But with Gollum, we have the prowess of Saruman and the evil gaze of Sauron. These two stand tall on their towers (Hence the title) creating a massive army which would result in explosive endings in the current and next installment.
Nevertheless, Two towers is better, bigger and more stronger. I promise, you will be left spellbound...
10/10
