Great movie! Great way to end the series!

Rating: 10/10 (11 December 2014)

I got to see The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies at the Los Angeles premiere December 9, 2014. I was hesitant to be enthusiastic about this film because I couldn't see how the ending of the Hobbit could be done well. I shouldn't have doubted Peter Jackson and company. From the opening scene, I was completely enchanted and mesmerized. I was taken into the story and laughed and cried along the way. Some of the scenes in TBoTFA are the best I've ever seen. One in particular featuring Galladriel gave me such chills that I can't wait to see it again. Anyone who has read the Hobbit and/or the Appendices to the Lord of the Rings or who has seen the first two movies should come away loving this one and feeling completely satisfied if sad. #OneLastTime
