Wonderfully adapted to the big screen

Rating: 10/10 (9 November 2003)

Peter Jackson has one-upped even the stellar Fellowship of the Rings with this cinematic masterpiece. This second installment in the trilogy makes up for FOTR's arguably slow moving sequences through use of massive battle scenes, and a lot more character development.
There really aren't many downers in the movie, save for the length of the movie - I can almost guarantee butt cramps and extreme tiredness. Drink some coffee before hand, and guzzle pop during.
All in all, this movie is a remarkable affair, and leaves one drooling in anticipation for the final movie.
