Their guide was Gollum, deceitful and lust-filled, slave to the corruption of the Ring. Only Frodo and Sam were left to take the accursed Ring of Power to be destroyed in Mordor–the dark Kingdom where Sauron was supreme. Some were contending with the treachery of the wizard Saruman. Some were bracing hopelessly for war against the ancient evil of Sauron. As a film, this movie has it all - action, drama, comedy - but none of it would've worked without characters we cared about, villains we despised and heroes we cheered for.The Two Towers: The Fellowship was scattered. He had the spark of life behind those eyes that the FF 'cast' lacked. Though obviously CGI, there was so much emotion in this character that I couldn't help believe he was real! Though 'Final Fantasy' was the only movie that created the most realistic CGI characters that dominated an entire film, Gollum is lightyears ahead with the simple fact that this deformed li'l hobbit seemed human.

Though the acting in this film was top notch throughout, I found myself amazed by Gollum's (motion captured body and voice by Andy Serkis) overall performance. All of these characters are heroes and they're played with love, respect and meaning.

From Pippin and Merry, the lost hobbits who aid the Ents in battle, to Gandalf, Aragorn, Gimli and Legolas who held back the hordes at Helms Deep to Frodo and Samwise who continue to make their dangerous and arduous trek to Mount Doom. At its core, this movie has eight such heroes and each one lives up to the call. Every great adventure story worth telling has a solid hero - someone who puts others before themselves and uses their talents to do their best at keeping the forces of evil at bay even if it means the loss of life and limb.
