Well Done + some notes

Rating: 8/10 (14 December 2012)

It was a job well done. However, if you are not familiar with Tolkien's work it is going to make you ask too many question. I personally recommend watching the LOTR before watching it. It can help you a lot.
The acting is great and CGI is the expected of Peter Jackson. Richard Armitage was simply fantastic and Andy Serkis as usual the best in his field. I do honestly believe it could have been made into two or even one movie. But one movie wouldn't cover much because there are some scenes from the unfinished tales and The Silmarillion. The White council is not in the Hobbit even though it is mentioned. Plus, the troll scene was a disappointment to me, I hoped to see Gandalf troll the trolls but that didn't happen unfortunately. I think it was remade in order to give more strength to the character of Bilbo.
Overall, it is job well done.
