The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers (2002)
One of the best movies ever made!
I went and saw the second film in the trilogy the day it came out here in Australia (26 December 02) and I just have to say the air in the cinema was electric, we all cheered as the lights went down and cheered again when the New Line Cinema logo appeard. Peter Jackson's take on the trilogy has only gotten better with The Two Towers. Considering how brilliant The Fellowship of the Ring was this had a lot of expectations to live up to and by far it met every one of them. The battle of Helms Deep, what more can I say then mind-blowing, Gollum and Treebeard were fantastic and the addition of cast members Bernard Hill, Karl Urban, Miranda Otto, Brad Dourif and David Wenham fantastic. Andy Serkis is a brilliant actor and made you pity Gollum at times and then at the same time feel repulsed by him. By far the hobbits are still my favourite characters, I loved Merry's speech to the ents about being part of Middle Earth, it is by far one of my favourite lines in the film. Sam was gorgeous and of course Elijah Wood brilliant as Frodo, not forgetting Pippin, who was great too. However I do believe that Ian McKellen (Gandalf) and Karl Urban (Eomer) didn't get enough screen time, but hopefully Return of the King will change that. All in all a brilliant film, I didn't even realises the three hours it went for. 10/10!
The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring (2001)
This is my fave movie!!!!!
I wanted to read the books before I went to see the movie. So I bought the fellowship of the ring and the two towers (knowing later i'd go buy the reutrn of the king). And as i read i never took the story in but once i saw the movie i have become more involved then ever. I have seen the film 3 times and plan to see it again and buy it when it comes out. I check the websites each day and download videos and evrything. Elijah Wood, Sean Astin, Billy Boyd and Dominic Monaghan as the hobbits were by far my favourite characters, they are all talented and amazing in their owns way and brought the four hobbits to life. Viggo Mortensen as Aragorn was perfect and he played the part wonderfully. The rest of the cast were great too and Peter Jackson should be proud. Every thing that happens for this film and cast they deserve. I can't wait to see the next two films.
Where the Day Takes You (1992)
Wow...
Where the day takes you I found to be a really interesting film. Seeing all those big names (Sean Astin, Will Smith, Dermot Mulroney & Rikki Lake) before they all really became famous was great. They all played thier parts amazigly well and the way the movie was done was great. Marc Rocco should be proud. I found it very true to the way life on the street is and think more movies like this should be done, but I suppose it's just that every so often you find one of these movies, and that they're unreplaceable.
