Incredible entertainment

Incredible entertainment. The Desolation of Smaug was every bit as epic as An Unexpected Journey, if not more so. The scene Peter Jackson sets is one of sheer beauty but terror at the same time. The action sequences are just so fantastic I saw in awe, they make sitting down for nearly 3 hours every bit of worth it. The grand finale of this movie was fascinating to watch, Smaug a worthy enemy. I cannot wait to watch the final movie of this wonderful trilogy. Its all making sense and tying in nicely with the originals. I hope people don't diminish all standing of my review for this film when I say, I'm enjoying the Hobbit trilogy more than the Lord of the Rings. That alone should be a statement at how great this movie is.
