Who Needs a Good Movie When You've Got CGI?

Rating: 3/10 (12 October 2015)

Hahahaha! Oh wait, this movie wasn't joking was it? In that case, I'll get my coat and quietly exit the cinema.
Unfortunately The Hobbit - Desolation of Smaug, like most of the Lord of the Rings series since the first one is an example of little more than just another cash cow, produced as quickly as possible for the most profit as possible.
It's films like this that make me want to argue for a re-classification of film into two categories. One - Film, and Two - Entertainment.
Unsurprisingly, this film scored more highly than Hitchcock's, The Birds. That may lead you to think that it's a better film, but believe me, it's not.
