If you're a fan, you'll love it

Though not exactly following the books, Two Towers has excellent action and of course continues Frodo's quest. If you are a fan of fantasy in any way I think you will like this, however do *NOT* watch this if you have not seen Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring.
These movies are a trilogy, however unlike other trilogies (i.e. Indiana Jones, Star Wars, etc) this trilogy is more of a continued story. Where the first movie ends the second starts, and if I recall correctly the commentary by Tolkien in the novel states that he intitally wanted it to be one large book, but due to lenght it is split into 3 parts. In other words, this is technically 1 9+ hour movie (once Return of the King comes out :)
