Long Drawn out computer game graphics

Rating: 2/10 (10 March 2015)

I'm a fan of Tolkien and I didn't mind the Lord of the Rings adaption, especially the first one.
The Hobbit is a different story though (excuse the pun). I could barely watch it, particularly The Battle of the Five Armies. The CGI is terrible, its like watching someone play a computer game. The CGI is dark, cold, sometimes way too soft, sometimes too harsh and totally unrealistic ... I just couldn't connect to the movie with those visuals.
It's also stretched out with made up content that adds nothing and is not relevant to the story. What is does do is make 1 movie into 3 movies ... a way of trying to milk every drop of money out of it with no benefit to the us, the audience.
Could have been great, turned out rubbish.
