hyped garbage
Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.
One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.
This was too an excellent part though a little short that the 1st part. This shows the dark forces gathering while the good are attempting to defeat the army of Saruman in their own ways all realizing that it's not in their individual capacity to do so. The crucial task of the Ent army added colours and adventure to the story. The return of Gandalf as the White Witch was interesting (none could be thought without him). The differing roles of the four hobbits and cunning games played by Gollum are worthy of mentioning. Also the entry of Gandalf at the crucial moment in the war of Helm's deep and the Ent destroying the setup of Saruman and Sauron are main events of the movie. Overall this ends on the disturbed sides wherein all the forces are not united while the Orcs are preparing for the big war.
Boy oh boy, what a mess.Visually, it's gorgeous, although by now of course the CGI that so impressed everyone has not aged well and Gollum looks really unconvincing.Story-wise, they have raped and confused Tolkien's masterpiece and taken liberties Tolkien himself would never have allowed for all the money they'd throw at him. The hubris of the lady who altered this script is unbelievable - Farimir's a bad guy, huh? Whatever you say, lady. Probably a movie was never going to truly capture the nuance of the books, but they didn't even come close here... the cartoon in the 70s did a better job for God's sake.This has been watered down appallingly for the cattle. As long as it looks and sounds like a good movie, the cattle are impressed, as usual. Good costumes and music, that's all the cattle need. And of course Bad Guys all being clearly and obviously 10000% bad, the good guys are clearly and obviously 10000% good... angel music when they are on screen to make it even plainer, and sinister music for the bad guys, it's a good substitute for character.Every line of dialogue must lack subtlety to keep the sheep impressed, so of course even Wormtongue holding a parchment and saying: "Theoden signed it this morning," yeah even this has to be The Most Dramatic Line Ever Said In a Movie!!!!! Cue the music which reminds the audience they're supposed to Feel Emotions at this moment.Oh my God how embarrassing to see those actors trying to keep a straight face while talking "elvish". Gimli's character is nothing but lame comic relief - he's short, get it? Ha, ha.This whole movie was an enormous, overly long cringe. And the cattle cued for miles to dump hundreds of millions in the pockets of those who did this. For shame.
Character development is phenomenal. Scenery and cinematic landscape unmatched. Helms Deep is heart pounding and breathtaking. Love this film!
My God. I was shocked after watching this movie. I cannot even imagine someone can adapt the novel so well that you will become part of it . The greatest cinematic achievement ever.This is and will be the top No. 1 favorite movie of mine all time . I could proudly say, I lived in the time of the LOTR movie made. I lived to watch this Epic saga .
