Compelling

Rating: 9/10 (24 August 2003)

Thank You Peter Jackson. These films are absolutely magical. The Two Towers has flaws, but is still a great experience of a movie. I looked at some of those who post to slam this film. One said that when he buys the movie he would use scene selection to skip over the parts he didn't like. I suppose the irony was lost on that one. I also saw a lengthy slam where the poster stated that on the two viewings he had of the film people were laughing at golem. I love this film, but I have only seen it once.

So do you see... this is a great movie. Even those who hate it can't look away. Even though it betrays their personal take on the books, there is magic on the screen that keeps them coming.
I will buy the DVD promptly Aug 26th.
