We do not want any adventures here.

Rating: 8/10 (23 October 2013)

A bit of a slog, I hear some say. It lacks the magic of the trilogy. The purists will love it, the average viewer will find it a bit tedious.
This film was certainly funnier than I remember the trilogy being.
I have to say that the rock giants were amazing.
The goblin fight was thrilling, and their King was totally disgusting.
The cast is familiar for the most part, and Andy Serkis as Gollum, along with Martin Freeman as Bilbo were amazing.
The makeup, visuals, and sound were simply incredible.
Peter Jackson has given us another winner.
