The movie is way too long to start with. Pretty much the whole story line has been completely rewritten from scratch with only the major settings being used (Last homely house, Elven forest, Laketown and the Lonely Mountain). Save your money and watch the Lord of the Rings again, since this is pretty much the same movie... I definitely suggest this if you have read the book before.
lots and lots of action, but they added way to much to the story, still a great movie.a most see for the holidays
great movie ,loved it
Write a letter to scotiabank if it bothers you that much, I would delete your comment since it has nothing to do with the movie. Dumbass getting headaches in a movie theatre...get your eyes checked quick!
Great movie lives up to its expectations
After 45 horrendous minutes of nausea inducing ad after ad, with a break halfway, for a Scene points game, the previews started then finally the movie. I did not enjoy the movie due to the headache I had. I will never go back to that Scotiabank theatre ever again.
The first one was pretty slow moving. This 2nd installment sprints along nicely for the most part. Good bits of action if not overly fantastic. The dragon is well done! My biggest peeve is the elves are a bit too superhero compared to the LOTR counterparts.
still too long a movie
Ah so you "like" little people do you? Perv. On another note, anything with dragons is worth a see.
The first hobbit was pretty good my favorite character is Gollum
