This movie is a masterpiece!

Rating: Null/10 (21 December 2002)

After seeing Lord Of the Rings: Fellowship Of The Ring last year I absolutely couldn't wait for the next installment in he series. Now that I have seen The Two Towers I will tell you that it surpasses the first in alot of departments. First, since we are already acquainted with most of the key characters in the film we have more of a chance for some heart pounding action sequences, sure there were some in the first but nothing like the battle scenes in this movie. Second, even with all of this action we still have plenty of time realize the beauty of the themes in the books. Hopelessness, heart and determination, friendship and many other themes give this movie a great sense of ideals. Not only that but we get to see our favorite characters go further in a perile of good vs. evil which grabs us even more into the film. Of course the acting is great. Its almost like these people were fit for the roles since birth. One great newcomer to the acting scene in this movie is Gollum. While he had somewhat of a part in the first, in this one he gets to shine as the best CG character I have ever seen. Overall this movie was everything I wished for and more. Thats why this great acheivement in film gets a 10 out of 10. I recommend this to anyone who is a fan of movies. Go see it whenever you have the chance.
