It's fairly violent.  Most of it isn't excessively gory, but there are a fair
number of intense battle scenes and one particularly notable scene where the
camera pans past an Orc's head mounted on a stake.  You might want to wait
on it for a while--or see it yourself to make sure you know what to prepare
for.

Saw "The Two Towers" this evening.  Great visuals, although a few effects (the
Orthanc, Saruman's tower in particular) looked rather model-esqe.  I was more
bothered by character problems, both differences from the text
(understandable) and even within the movie inconsistencies.
