Surprised

Rating: 4/10 (21 December 2012)

8.5?! 94th on the top 250 movies of ALL TIME?! I found myself bored half ways through. I LOVE the Lord of the Rings trilogy and will be having a LOTR marathon for the first 3 again soon but 'The Hobbit' was slowww, carried out way to long, the acting was cheesy and corny and though the creators attempted to put in lots of 'action' scenes and battles, each one absolutely failed to capture my excitement and keep me on the edge of my seat as in the first 3 movies of the trilogy. Every skirmish ended with a victory far to easily won. It was as if this movie was made for a younger audience with the corny acting and PG battles..compared to the raw emotion and excitement and action of the first 3.
Bored, and not excited for the next 2...Will keep my original LOTR series as an all time great but will not buy this..
