As the second film in the "Lord of the Rings" series, "The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers" very well continues the overall style of the first film, and shows more of the main character background and worldview composition in a better and more detailed manner . A friend of mine particularly likes the last part of the movie, the scene where "Tree Elf" and "Gandalf the White Robe" defeat the enemy in two lines. Every time he looked at it, he was very excited. I like the scene where the king decides to die at the last moment when the "hussar country" seems to be about to be destroyed. Perhaps the pride of mankind lies here. We would rather die in battle than watch ourselves be defeated. As long as you resist, there is hope. The little guy "Guru" is sometimes cute and sometimes vicious, and is really a standard schizophrenic patient. The sudden appearance of Gandalf in a white robe makes me feel a little discouraged, maybe I think it looks a little bit clichéd here. However, the flaws do not conceal the advantages. If you have the opportunity, you must find Tolkien's original work to see it, and it must be very heart-warming.

    "We shouldn't have come, but we are here." I now understand that the protagonists in these stories have many opportunities to give up halfway, but they did not. They decided to go forward because they held a belief. What faith do we hold? There must be kindness in this world, and it is worth fighting to the end.

    [20110810] Sure enough, the story line was straightened out (Tolkien's writing is interesting, but the sequence must be adjusted to make a movie). Grab all possible love scenes and shoot them into a love triangle (add some content in the appendix of Lord of the Rings 3). Ente's style is a bit cheating. This episode is relatively loyal to the original, and the main change is Saruman (the design of possession is really good). But it’s so fucking long...|[20210423 Replay] Completely relaxed rewatch, I actually watched it, and suddenly felt that 2 is the best in the series. The distribution of the dramas is very balanced, and the most important thing is that it was shot. A rare Greek tragic epic feeling: the characters' struggles when facing temptation are more detailed, and the important thing is that the characters' heroic struggle with fate is truly epic. The metaphor of war is more obvious.

The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers quotes

  • Theoden: Where is the horse and the rider? Where is the horn that was blowing? They have passed like rain on the mountain, like wind in the meadow. The days have gone down in the West behind the hills into shadow. How did it come to this?

  • Gandalf: Three hundred lives of men I have walked this earth and now I have no time.
