Simply magnificent

Rating: Null/10 (28 August 2003)

There are no other words to describe the second of J.R.R.
Tolkien's trilogy brought to life by Peter Jackson. This film is even better than the Fellowship of the Ring.
Andy Serkis' portrayal of Gollum steals the show from other worthy
contenders. The agony Gollum/Smeagol experiences as he tries
to decide his allegiances can be felt by the audience. The epic and climatic battle scene, which takes up the last hour of
this classic, has to rank right up there with some of the other great
battle scenes which movie audiences have witnessed. I personally cannot wait to see what Jackson has in store for us
with The Return of the King. One thing's for certain we won't be disappointed if the first two
installments are anything to go on.
