This is the most beautiful journey ever.

Rating: 10/10 (14 December 2013)

I have waited for a year (since the first Hobbit) for this movie to come out in cinemas. There was obviously huge hype and I have been anticipating it for a long time cause I knew it would have been better than the first. I was right! It was a fantastic return to Middle Earth for me (a LOTR fan) and many other Tolkien fans all over. Hopefully others who are not yet fans will enjoy this spectacular fantasy. Everything from Mirkwood to Lake Town and the Lonely Mountain is amazing. The in depth of the story and added scenes is great and gives this movie a genuine feel that compares to it's Lord of the Rings counterparts!!!! The dragon Smaug is one of the reasons that this movie was so exciting because It was always teased in the previous film. Nothing could have compared to the excellent work of Weta to bring this beast to life and the genius of Benedict Cumberbatch who lends his voice and physical movement to Smaug. It is probably one of the best CGI dragons ever made. Just when it spreads it's wings for the first time it makes us remain breathless. This movie "undoubtably" gets a 10 on 10!! Great Stuff!!! Full of Epicness.
