Continuation of thr fisrt movie where Frodo baggins goes on his journey to destroy the one ring that can rule everything and everyone.

The quality and special effects is as good if not better then the fisrt. The storyline is as gripping as the first and the fight scenes are magical.

You can watch this second movie before the first movie but would highly recommend you watch the fisrt as the first movie has a good storyline to build characters.

Ive watched this 3 episodes over a dozen times and still catching scenes that i missed. things happen so fast and all around the screen, so the eyes cannot catch everything that is happening.

It was only buy chance that i watched the first of the lord of the rings. I was i'll in bed and a friend brought me round about ten different DVD's. In this collection was all three lord of the rings DVD's.

At first i thought this wasnt for me, but then the film started and buy the end of the day i had watched all of them, not just one, not two but all three and these are long films!!!

If you havent seen any of the Lord of the rings then please go out and buy them all, you wont regret it!

I dont feel i need to say anything about the films except please buy them and make sure you've got some spare time to watch them, because believe me once you start the first one you will want to watch them all

Rating 5 out of 5
