Summary: Worth owning, but disappointing...
Review: As with Fellowship this film was visually stunning, however, storywise it was dreadful. If you've never read the books, do yourself a favor and do so - there's never been a better novel written. That's the problem with this movie: Jackson tries to mess with an already perfect story. Fitting a book onto the big screen will inevitably call for cuts in the storyline, such as in FotR (which, by the way, was done without comprimising the integrity of the book), but what was done to this installment is criminal. Most people, I suppose, will be content to at least have a decent adaptation to view without being bothered by plot, but when you know how good the book is you can only be disappointed, even angered, at how much better this movie could have been. Being a huge fan of LotR, I myself was pretty much devastated after viewing this film, unlike the first picture which stayed true to an already flawless story, only cutting scenes and making changes when necessary due to time constraints. Unfourtunatly, good writing must often yield nowadays to visual dominance - it is rare for a movie to have both.

Rating: 5 stars

Summary: The Best Of The Best
Review: "The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers" is a very wonderful movie! With stunning award, and Oscar, winning visual effects, incredible acting, and stupendous musical (score) "The Two Towers" is a VERY exciteing movie to watch! "The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King" will be so incredibly fantastic that it will be the best movie of 2003, as was "The Two Towers" in 2002 and "The Fellowship of the Ring" in 2001.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Felt like you were really there
Review: This movie and all of them were absolutly amazing. Funny, action, sadness, happiness. Great for whole family. Great graphics, everything looks so real. The makers were smart to do it all at once.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great Movie
Review: Personally, I enjoyed this movie a lot. It was great. I have also read the books. Although there were differences I feel that they don't really matter. Stop complaining about minor details and enjoy the movie! I'm sure there are some things that you would have changed, but that doesn't matter. If you're really that disappointed make your own version and stop complaining.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Never the same as the book...so get over it and enjoy
Review: So get over it and enjoy true epic cinema. Be grateful Miramax passed, or all three books would have been crammed into ONE movie!! Watch the extras and you understand why changes were made from the original text, and you might find yourself approving more often than not. The brilliance is in the details, as nothing was done half-heartedly. Achieving character depth in a movie is no simple task, and this is where LOTR stands out. This movie has easily jumped passed some of my all-time favorites, and I look forward to ROTK like no other movie in recent memory.

p.s. There is nothing wrong with liking the book over the movie, OR VICE VERSA. What matters most is that you are immersed in Tolkien's vision and appreciate that after 60+ years, this story still has meaning in our everyday lives.

Rating: 5 stars

Summary: Fantastic!
Review: "The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers" is one of my favorite fantasy movies along side with "The Fellowship of the Ring", its prequel, and "Dragon Heart". "The Two Towers" is a fantastic Oscar-winning movie that amazed me the entire time while I watched it in theaters. Now I cannot wait to own both the original version and the Special Extended Edition on video when their released in stores on different dates.

Rating: 5 stars

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: TTT IS GREAT, HAS A GREAT SCRIPT, And Is Better Than FOTR
Review: The books are good but the Lord of the Rings movie trilogy is a lot better. That is just a BIG FACT that we all must face. The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers is a GREAT MOVIE with a GREAT SCRIPT and it is way BETTER than its prequel The Fellowship of the Ring, which is a wonderful movie. There are too many complaints about this movie from people upset about it not going by the books well enough. I saw no problem with that. The Two Towers goes by the books very well in my opinion. But movies are movies and books are books. And movies are way better than books because you don't have to visualize anything. The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers is one of 2002's best movies! It is a marvelous film and a HUGE movie PHENOMENON!
