Good but not that good

Rating: 7/10 (13 January 2003)

Liked the first film and was looking forward to the second installment. When I first left the theatre I thought it was a good film but slowly as I pondered through the film in my mind I amfraid to say that it wasn't that good. I know this goes against a lot of the comments but I can only speak my mind.
There are several little niggly pieces in the film but the last straw was when the "hereos" rode out into Orcs from Helms Deep......man that was just too much.10 riders against 1000 Orcs and not a scratch on any of them. I know he has to follow the book but that was way too much to stomache.Please get a bucket.
I will still buy the DVD but I won't be awaiting the release date as I was with the first.
