Probably the worst of the trilogy but still a good film

Rating: 7/10 (13 December 2014)

I initially had high expectations for this film, but I had seen a lot of reviews saying it was the worst and I refused to believe it. There were some good bits, like the relationship between Thorin and Bilbo. It also tried to be a bit of a comedy, it really shouldn't have been, yes it is aimed at a younger audience, yes here were some funny bits, but honestly no one gives a dam about Alfred. Also wasn't really the best ending, with the Return of the King they had multiple endings which explained what happened with the characters and was a satisfying end, whereas it sort of just ended. Also parts in the trailer that weren't in the film, really annoyed me. But I'm the extended edition will be better.
