Welp, I guess as a movie, the Hobbit was okay. If you're a fan of the LOTR flicks then you'll enjoy this film. If you haven't read the book, you might possibly enjoy it. The Hobbit starts of strong and it actually followed the flavor of the book. I actually thought that Jackson was not going to butcher the story. I'm not a purest but movie's based on books should follow the story at least a little. Riddles in the Dark was completely screwed up and turned me against the film. This was one of the defining points in the book and Jackson could have easily stuck to it and kept the Movie interesting (possibly more so). I can forgive most of the rest of the film and I understand Jackson trying to keep it in line with LOTR. But it should be said that this movie was loosely based on the Hobbit and if you love the book you will probably hate this movie.
