"One of the greatest achievements in cinema history...thunderous climaxes that moviegoers will long remember...the performances continue to be richer and more satisfying than one expects in such a fantastic tale...amazing...dazzling...astounding...it's an amazing thing to behold...Towers is a cinematic flood of spectacular proportions."
-David Hunter, The Hollywood Reporter
"A more impressive film than its well received predecessor...gargantuan... no let-down in storytelling sweep and spectacle...grand but mobile cinematography... haunting...beautifully realized...it's hard to imagine a much better version of this material onscreen...the cast is indisputably impressive."
-Todd McCarthy, Variety Chief Film Critic
"It's downright biblical...awesome...it's not every day that a special effect turns in a splendid performance...an emotionally charged epic...superbly staged."
-Owen Gleiberman, Entertainment Weekly
