review of THE TWO TOWERS spoiler

Rating: 10/10 (1 February 2003)

First of all if you haven't seen the movie (or the commercials) here is how it goes. Frodo and Sam are off to mordor when they get lost and are found by gollem. (Andy Serkis; does an awesome job! worth the time and the money!) He shows them the way. At the same time Aragorn and company are getting ready for an attack from 10,000 orcs, and the other hobbits are trying to get the ents to go to war. put it all together you get a sweet movie. The most asked question about this movie, for me anyways, is it better then the first one. Well yes and no. There just different which makes all that much better. Personally I think that the battles in the first one were alot more suspensful, but the ones in TTT are alot more visually taking. The music in TTT is alot better. The fellowship sticks alot more to the books. The fellowship sort of drags on a little bit more, while TTT is more fast paced. The only thing I really don't like in TTT is the acting of the hobbits. Thier characters changed way to quickly. Sam went from friendly to a pain. Frodo wasn't supposed to go psycho till the next movie. Merry and pippin aren't even funny, but thats made up for by Gimli (john ryse davies), and there is a little humor from gollem.(but not much) The best parts of the movie were the ones with gollem or Gandalf, because gollem was just a sweet acting job, and gandalf does some cool stuff.
