Not so faithful to the book, but still good.

Rating: 7/10 (22 December 2012)

So the day came that I have waited for in over a year, yes since the hobbit trailer came out. First things I must criticizes a bit is why did they add Frodo in the plot? When he hadn't nothing important there to do, just wasting of money. The beginning battle was a great scene, dwarfs in battle, we didn't see that in Lord Of The Rings, but the story of Azog went wrong in many parts of the movie. How the earth have Radagast the wizard such a big part in the movie? That wouldn't have been necessary,but after all he is a good man. Moral follows Tolkiens lines in some parts, specially when Gandalf speaks, for example the part when he tells Bilbo that it's in some situations best to spare enemies life. What takes most down my number to this movie is battles, which even in children's eyes look ridiculous, 14 warriors against thousands of orcs and nearly none are even hurt, this would have been better if they had kept the smaller battles from the book. Still this movie has so many beautiful scenes and good actors so it doesn't after all bring shame to Tolkien's name.
