Perfect Movie

Rating: 10/10 (14 December 2012)

I enjoyed the movie throughout and I find myself with more desire to watch it again than the first time round. I believe having read the book I found it more enjoyable as I knew what to expect before and what to expect form the other movies, yet the new content allows me to have a little of surprise. I watched in 48FPS and 3D, and even though the 3D bothered me (always has), it has been the my most enjoyable 3D experience to date, especially on the last scenes. The 48FPS did not bother me, and I even enjoyed the clarity, however I want to watch it in 24FPS and 2D to be able to compare both experiences. I believe complaints regarding the Hobbit being turned into a trilogy are unfair and unjustified, as the other 2 movies have yet to be released. In addition, having read the book, I believe the other movies have a bigger potential than the first. I also believe it is unfair to attack the movie by claiming it is worse than the LOTR trilogy, as they have different atmosphere, and the movie should be rated on its own. In conclusion great movie - don't let the critics discourage you, the critics are mixed so go to see it yourself and give your own conclusion. My opinion is the movie is just as good as any other LTOR and I desperately look forward to watching it again.
