lord of the rings: the two towers...

at last. i saw this movie on the big screen at first midnight show in the country. late eh? yeah...

well, lotr: ttt is a great movie. it may differ a lot from the book comparing to the first movie but still a great movie. the special effect is undoubtly the most excellent part of the movie, the story itself is a beauty... but not as deep as the book of course... it's only 179 minutes (according to imdb) and yet it still capture the essence of the book. it a must see movie of this year and if you plan on watching only one movie, make it lotr: ttt is your choice.

additional advice: read the original book either after or before watching the movie. don't give me the crap reason 'the book is too thick!', you can read it slowly at your own pace. you will love the story and the character... afterall it is a classic book.
