One of my favorite of the trilogy.

Rating: 10/10 (6 November 2013)

The second opus of "The lord of the Ring" was one of my favorite of the Trilogy. This second opus shows the different path the main characters take and how they will deal with the different obstacles they must overcome.
The main stage of this opus is the Battle of the Hornburg and it's really epic. Showing the allegiance between humans and elves. It was for me one of the best scene of the trilogy, maybe because I'm such a huge fan of Legolas and his peers ;) , because this Battle of the Hornburg will decide the destiny of the human race and this scene was so so beautiful. You feel all the emotions in this particular scene : fear, rage, pain, sadness, hope, joy,  We have a mix up of our feelings and you are really into this movie.
One of my favorite moment was when Gandalf shows up with the Theoden's army with the light of the sun behind his back. It was like a miracle. Because during all of this time during the crucial battle, the spectator has suffer of this whole mix of emotion that in the end you thing that Gandalf will never make it in time and it's over. You see a sea of blood with corpses everywhere and you feel desperate like "They will be dead" and "Bam" Gandalf is back as he promised and you regain hope as for the others characters.
The soundtrack was extremely wonderful and well done. They have insert some extract of the music from the first opus and remix it to give it a new color. It was a fantastic job to have incorporate some extract of the first opus.
