A continuation, yes, but with a different tone.

Rating: 7/10 (5 October 2003)

Once again, I think as a movie alone, TT was fairly spectacular. However, the changes made to this one were in a few ways not only significant, they left me with a bad taste in my mouth, as they weren't even necessary. Not to say Jackson doesn't redeem himself with the overall film, but I felt it could have been much more.
