Excellent - Brilliant story line

Rating: 10/10 (15 December 2013)

After watching An Unexpected Journey, I thought the story would be slow and similar as part 1, However Peter Jackson has done it again, what a movie, brilliant effects and CGI, story was well written and acted, definitely would recommend this to ALL Lord of the Rings and Hobbit fans.
Smaug and Erabor was beautifully constructed (considering that all the Gold Paint in New Zealand was used to make the gold coins / treasure etc.
As fans may know that this films budget was £300m and above (more than the lord of the rings trilogy put together), therefore it is really easy to appreciate the amount of work and effort gone into creating the scenery etc.
