Guys, I've played this a lot in the past few months and I know for sure the hobbits don't kick. Legolas, Aragorn and Faramir kick; the hobbits and Gimli push, and Gandalf pushes with his staff.  By the way, is this game even based on the film? It doesn't have any music from The Return of the King, it has music from the first two films only. I found the levels The South Gate, The Pelennor Fields and The Black Gate pretty pathetic; they clearly weren't at all taken from the films.
