Movie delivered

Rating: 10/10 (15 January 2013)

The LOTR trilogy which came out in movie theaters 11 years ago is one of the best trilogies and most successful of them ever made. So to say that The Hobbit movies coming out has a little bit to live up to would be a very big understatement.
I'm glad that Peter Jackson ended up being the director of the trilogy since his style of filmmaking is perfect for Middle Earth based stories. Guillermo del Toro would've done a fine job himself but PJ was basically born to make these movies. His style of being able to make movies with the action, fantasy, humor and story structure like this brings a certain style to this movie that other directors wouldn't have been able to pull off as well.
And for the fans of LOTR who haven't read any of the books you get introduced to a bunch of new characters you haven't seen before but also get some returning characters from the LOTR trilogy like the characters played by Frodo, Bilbo, Smeagol, Elrond and Galadriel.
