Superb realisation of the Tolien classic

Rating: 10/10 (1 January 2003)

My expectations were rediculously high after the fabulous first installment of Peter Jackson's live action realisation of the most famous fantasy book ever written. Having waited so long for the Two Towers, I thought I was bound to be dissappointed. Not likely! This film was every bit as memorable as the first and, if anything, even better executed. If you love epics or were bewitched by the books, this film is a must.
At the end of the film my overwhelming sense was of frustration over having to wait a year for the next one.
