Boring...really?

Rating: 10/10 (11 January 2013)

After hearing so many, well, negative reviews I had almost decided not to check The Hobbit out in the cinemas. Fortunately a few well trusted reviewers said that it was actually pretty awesome. The film, as a whole, was spectacular. Even Radagast wasn't as annoying as I was led to believe. The VFX were amazing (not ground-breaking, but still amazing), the score was epic, the dwarfs were well played individuals (though you don't get to know all of them extremely well), Richard Armitage was so epic as Thorin that I fully respect him as an actor, even after being in BBCs Robin Hood (blah) and Martin Freeman rocks as Bilbo. Ooh, and the "Riddles in the Dark" scene was both hilarious and smart. Those who say it is too slow or long obviously haven't read the book. May it's 8.3 rating be everlasting. Go see it.
