As a connecting film, the Two Towers falls into some of the similar traps that most second films in a trilogy do. It is a little long on exposition and a lot of the character relationships simply serve to set up a bridge to the epic third film. Still, as it was shot simultaneously with the other films, it bears some of the same visual eye that masterfully brings Tolkien's world to life. It may be the murkiest of the trilogy, but it has its moments of action and adventure.
