Wow, what a great film!

Rating: 9/10 (18 December 2002)

My one and only disappointment of this film is the absence of new music. My friends have argued that this movie is just the second installment of a longer series, and I agree, but I felt that the first movie's music was new and exciting. The music in "Fellowship" enhanced the experience, drawing out strong emotions in the audience. I feel the music was "recycled" in The Two Towers, and it did not have the same effect.
Other than that, I think Peter Jackson did a wonderful job, again. Go see it. Even if you're not a Tolkien fan, the experience alone is astounding! The CGI is even impressive, and most films cannot quite grasp the importance of good CGI. Take, for example, the newest Bond flick - the CGI was laughable, and took something from the movie. Jackson, however, employs an incredible use of technology and the movie flows quite smoothly.

I have nothing else to say. The movie speaks for itself.

I give "The Two Towers" a solid 9 out of 10.
