Synopsis
In the second of Peter Jackson's cinematic tales of "The Lord of the Rings," the Fellowship will stand against the powerful forces spreading from the Two Towers - Orthanc Tower in Isengard, where Saruman has bred a lethal army of 10,000 strong; and Sauron's fortress at Barad-dur, deep within the dark lands of Mordor.

Review
The second of the epic trilogy ups the emotional aspect through a wider storytelling scope that doesn't only further explore the expansive world of Middle-Earth but fleshing out the constructive details surrounding character developments. Simpy said, 'The Two Towers' is a beautiful tale of courage that builds up the anticipation towards the last chapter of Tolkien's legendary literary legacy, in both emotional yet epic manner.
