Boston Globe
The miracle is that 'The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers is better: tighter, smarter, funnier.

Towers, while not quite so varied as Fellowship in its moods and settings, has a grave gusto that energizes every moment...a thrilling work of film craft.

New York Daily News
The Two Towers moves faster, covers more ground, has more action and -- with the introduction of the marvelous character Gollum -- packs some much-appreciated laughs.
90
Never has a film so strongly been a product of a director's respect for its source. Mr. Jackson uses all his talents in the service of that reverence, creating a rare perfect mating of filmmaker and material.

Dallas Observer
The year's greatest adventure, and Jackson's limited but enthusiastic adaptation has made literature literal without killing its soul.
