Last year, I authored an academic review of the first of the Lord of the Rings movies. Today, I went to see Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers, as all peoples should. This is by far the best sequel to a movie that I have ever seen. That’s most likely because the stories behind all three movies were written long ago, and because all three stories were filmed in sucession. I loved how suspense and surprise are everywhere in the movie. (Because I figure not everyone’s seen this movie yet, I won’t divulge it all.) I loved how well the movie built up the plot. However, it really confused me once it started giving two plots, at the exact same time, involving the exact same characters. Both plots are great, but why put both in? I haven’t read the book (I know I should), so if anyone can explain…
Anyhow, this film was well worth the three hours it takes up. I’m not a big fan of violent movies, but the relatively increased violence in this film doesn’t bother me in the least.
