Frodo decides to free Gollum in exchange for leading them to Mordor Sam doesn’t trust him (with good reason). They catch him in the act and truss him up with elven rope. We see that the Ring is getting heavier for Frodo, who feels its pull more than ever before, and certainly more than old Bilbo ever seemed to exhibit (except for brief spells.) This wandering phase is rather dull until the arrival of Gollum, who has been following the hobbits with plans to steal back the Ring. ![]() The perspective switches (get ready for a lot of this) to Frodo and Sam, tired and lost, as they make their way through the razor cliffs of Emyn Muil. Then we relive Gandalf’s fall from the bridge of Khazad Dum, but this time we get to see more of his battle with the Balrog, which is sheer awesomeness. The movie picks up right where Fellowship left off, starting with a gorgeous panorama shot of snow-capped mountains. This mainly occurred in the first hour, and it made for a slightly disjointed viewing experience. One of the first things I noticed about this film was the short, choppy sequencing of scenes. Last week I wrote about The Fellowship of the Ring movie, and this week I follow up with the sequel, The Two Towers.
