Masterpiece? Oh yes, I?ve no doubt about that!

The second part of the epic The Lord of the Rings, The Two Towers is simply the most spectacular film I have EVER seen. This movie overpasses its previous part The Fellowship of the Ring and delivers the most brilliant piece of cinema to ever hit the big screen. From the landscape to the characters, this movie is simply stunning in its own time.

The characters fit right into the story through their emotional and physical features. Frodo and Sam are joined by Gollum, the most amazing CGI creation to be put on screen. He is so real and blends into the environment so seamlessly that after a while the audience forgets that he is animation and accept him as a real, physical character that shows no signs of falsity. The audience feels a real fear of the Uruk-Hai that have captured Merry and Pippin. The Ents are also quite impressive. These beings are believable and very true to what I visualized in Tolkien?s words. The Wargs, the winged Nazg�l, the oliphaunts and the Balrog, now viewed more in detail, are extremely breathtaking. The new characters add to the story and progress it faster than before.
