A Rose as Beautiful and Deadly as the Essence of Man

Rating: 10/10 (19 December 2002)

One cant enter the theatre, without enormous expectations of what is to come, what is to be seen and lived through in The Two Towers by Peter Jackson. The fear of failure vanished 15 minutes into Fellowship of the Ring, so it was with good reason, that those unjust expectations flourished or for some still flourishes, in our minds.
But, oh my god, the river that is The Two Towers, lets us once again, deeply into the very heartbeats and cries of middleearth. Where I see Fellowship of the Ring, more as an introduction to the marvel of Tolkiens thinking, than anything else, Two Towers is indeed the unleashed epic of the Lord of the Rings.
Not since reading the books, have I felt such vigor, vastness and beauty in a story, that portrays in essense the so very important values of our existance.
The Two Towers is a masterpiece, not surpassed by anything I have ever seen. The story by Tolkien are one of the greatest fantasy-reality escapism/realism stories of the world today. Its silverscreen adaption is worthy of our gods of old, whose segas is our legacy to inherit.

With The Two Towers, is has once more been proven, that man can be god.
