Amazon.com The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers is a seamless continuation of Peter Jackson's epic fantasy based on the works of J.R.R. Tolkien. After the breaking of the Fellowship, Frodo (Elijah Wood) and Sam (Sean Astin) journey to Mordor to destroy the One Ring of Power with the creature Gollum as their guide. Meanwhile, Aragorn (Viggo Mortensen), Legolas (Orlando Bloom), and Gimli (John Rhys-Davies) join in the defense of the people of Rohan, who are the first target in the eradication of the race of Men by the renegade wizard Saruman (Christopher Lee) and the dark lord Sauron. Fantastic creatures, astounding visual effects, and a climactic battle at the fortress of Helm's Deep make The Two Towers a worthy successor to The Fellowship of the Ring, grander in scale but retaining the story's emotional intimacy. These two films are perhaps the greatest fantasy films ever made, but they're merely a prelude to the cataclysmic events of The Return of the King. --David Horiuchi
Product Description THE 2ND INSTALLMENT OF THE EPIC TRILOGY. FRODO BAGGINS & THE FELLOWSHIP CONTINUE THEIR QUEST TO DESTROY THE ONE RING & STAND AGAINST THE EVIL OF THE DARK LORD SAURON.

Worth Every Additional Minute July 5, 2009 R. Adler (Laramie WY) I loved it. There are scenes that help explain some things that weren't clear in the shorter version. Every additional scene added to the movie.
Best Sequel June 5, 2009 Bobbie C (Florida) As in Fellowship, this is a great movie. Will be a classic. Although it varries from the book, it is a good movie in its own right.
ANOTHER PRECIOUS EDITION May 24, 2009 R. Arrington (Somewhere) In this second film of the Lord of The Rings trilogy,the Fellowship continue their journey to defeat the Dark Lord Sauron and bring peace to Middle Earth.Much like the first film,The Two Towers finds our heroes fighting even more epic battles and meeting new and amazing characters.The acting is still spot-on and the special effects/enormous sets and overwhelming battle sequences are just as maginificently well done as always.This extended edition adds over 40 minutes of footage not seen in the theatrical version and not a second of it works against the overall film.Each new moment only proves this edition's superiority in both character development and action.Like the extended editions of the other two films,The Two Towers comes loaded with special features.There are two disks packed with hours of video documentaries on the design and construction of clothes/sets/weapons and behind the scenes of most of the film's battles and all processes involved such as choreography, editing and scoring.There are also hundreds of design sketches and stills that can be viewed individually.All in all,it's a superior edition in every way,providing much more thrills and adventure than the theatrical version.
Great Movie. May 3, 2009 C. Weaver (Rusk, Texas United States) Again the extended version adds to the story. This version helps the Lord Of The Rings along by adding back scenes that add to the storyline and help get it closer to the book. I have both the movie release and this one and I, by far, like this one best!
Loved every minute May 2, 2009 James Carpenter (Pennsville, NJ USA) The Two Towers is a worthy follow-up to the Fellowship of the Rings. Acting, scenery, make-up, everything is top-notch, and Peter Jackson has truly brought Tolkien's masterpiece to life on the big screen. Whether you are a Tolkien fan, or simply enjoy an engrossing film experience, The Two Towers is definitely worthy of your attention. Thank you Mr. Jackson!
