Not true to the Book!

Rating: 1/10 (24 April 2015)

Creative liberties. Too many and for what reason? Why make all these needless and poor changes? They ruined this movie with poor decisions. This movie is utter trash. Downright awful CGI effects. I understand using it for the armies and background battles, but it is used in place of characters and close up shots. Lord Dain on his boar, addressing the elves. Why, why use that poorly textured CGI. 48FPS, come on, the cheapest video game has 60FPS on average now. And those don't cost $250,000,000. Also the trolls shouldn't be in the sun, those weren't bred until the War of the Ring. Speaking of trolls, what the heck is that troll with clubs in place of all of it's limbs. An utter disappointment and a slap to fans' faces is a fair sum up of this trash.
