The Hobbit the Desolation of Smaug

Rating: 9/10 (16 June 2015)

The Hobbit trilogy is a great movie trilogy the second one; The Desolation of Smaug is the best. An Unexpected Journey has an OK story the first 30 mins is uninteresting as the dwarfs come into Bilbo's house and eat all of his food. The Desolation of Smaug has many battle scenes. Smaug the dragon guards the hall that is full of gold and jewels, the dwarfs and Bilbo venture to the lonely mountain which is the dwarf's home, which Smaug took by force many years ago. In the final scene of the movie, the dwarfs let Smaug escape, he flies over to Lake Town which is the city that helped them reach the mountain. He states "My teeth are swords. My claws are spears. My wings are a HURRICANE! I am fire, I am death." And you see Smaug head for Lake Town prepared to burn it. Bilbo dramatically closes the movie with "What have we done." The end of the movie should have been when Bard (Luke Evans from Fast and Furious 6) shoots down the beast with a black arrow, but they keep that for the next movie.
