Money. money, money ...

Rating: 1/10 (19 December 2012)

This film wasn't made for the LOTR fans; it was made for those who were born after the LOTR was made.
It looks like a Walt Disney Picture movie (they even sing songs) or an RPG (role-playing game) like Dungeon Siege II. I read in some reviews that this movie looks like "The fellowship of the ring". FALSE! The beauty of "The fellowship of the ring" consists in the mortality of the main characters, like Gandalf and Boromir. The hobbit is more like Ice Age: Bilbo & Co. looks like Manfred & Co, they are all immortals. And there is another significant difference: while in the LOTR the most of the villains were real, in "The hobbit" every of them are CGI.
I saw it in 3D, 24 fps but when it was filmed with fast camera motion I can't saw a damn thing, everything was shaky. So, what was the point of making the movie in 24 fps? I think the point is: if you pay more you can see everything, at 48 fps.
And another thing: I don't care if the book has only 300 pages because there are a lot of movies (some of them are very good ones) based on short stories (easy to find on IMDb by using the keywords "based on short story"). I was expecting for another 9 hour epic masterpiece, made in a LOTR way, but ...
I think the film is more like a 5, but I'm giving it a 1 because I think that it's too much 10 ratings.
I've been waiting for this movie for years and I never thought that I will write such a negative review.
