A phenomenal movie 8/10

Rating: 8/10 (19 June 2020)

"The Battle of The Five Armies" is the final chapter of "the Hobbit" trilogy, though people will prefer the LOTR trilogy, I enjoyed both of them and think they give a rich story to the world Tolkien has wrote. This movie was a blast, so many great intense moments and remarkable dialogue and chemistry between the characters. The main event of the movie was of course the battle of the five armies. One spectacular sequence that continues till the very end of the movie. One thing that bothered me with the beginning of the film was the quick death of Smaug the dragon. I think it would have been smarter to Keep him for the battle. So I feel the writers wasted some potential with this character. Martin Freeman gives a good performance, ian Mckellen is great as always, Richard Armitage does a great job as Thorin. The rest of the casting is fantastic and we got a nice closure to the trilogy that summons up to the timeline of the LOTR. Which is amazing cause we get a nice clear ending to the whole story. Both trilogys. A fabulous movie that is most recommended and delivers a tearful experience.
