Rating: 10/10 (27 August 2003)

i have been waiting to see this film for 9 months..as i never went to see it in the cinema..now i wish i had to have.. from the very moment the film opens you know its going to be good.
having read the 'Two Towers Book' after being blown away by the Fellowship..and i hate reading books..i couldnt wait to see how the film would compare with the book...
i must admit if youve read the book..its hard not to nit pick your way throuigh the film..but its still a fantastic film...
after buying the DVD i must say that the extras are quite poor..but i will be waiting to buy the 'Special Extended version' in Nov as the documentaries are first class and with 4 Audio Comentries its a must have DVD..
if there ever was a film to show off DVD and your 5.1 sound system this is the film...
the only critiscism i have is that they leave out a section of the the 'Two Towers' book where Gollum leads them into a Cave to meet 'Her'
this was amazing to read in the book..and was one of things i was looking forward to seeing..but it will be in the 'Return of the king' which i guess is ok.
my advice is to enjoy the film and leave ur critic thoughts outside the room.
10/10
