Simply the best

Rating: 10/10 (19 December 2002)

It's not often a movie strikes a chord with me as The Two Towers has. In my opinion this film is now the benchmark that all other movies should be judged. Unlike other special effect loaded movies such as The Mummy returns. Lord of the Rings doesn't leave you feeling that you just watched a two hour or more video game unfold. I was in total amazment with the effects in this movie. Furthermore I am not sure if they give an acadamy award for casting but this has to be the most brilliant job I have ever seen. Every actor in this movie seemed to be born for the part he or she played in it. I cannot thank Mr Jackson enough for the job he is done on this series. The only things that bug me about the trilogy now is 1. I have to wait a whole year for the next one. 2. I have serious doubt that the third one could live up to Two Towers. Oh well I had the same reservation going into this one. ***** of Five
