the hobbits journey is pearlous as they near the dragons lair

Rating: 9/10 (19 December 2013)

back to middle earth i kind of knew how the first hobbit would end but this film grabs you in and doesn't let go until the end which was unexpected and making you want to see the last hobbit it bring back the memories of the first L O T R .the second grabs you with breataking story. amazing special effects FAR darker tone and MUCH more fantasy action The spiders of Mirkwood here approach actual horror.the piercing together of the dark lord from the L O T R trilogy because its 60 years behind the originals bring s a little bits of the story of where the dark lord got his power will already know that this is the start of the war with Sauron, and the all-important Dark Lord could not well be ignored. Tolkien in his letters noted how Sauron casts just "a fleeting shadow" over the pages of The Hobbit; in Jackson's movie the shadow is darker and deeper.
Entire new subplots are freely created and added to the story. The Elf Tauriel and her unlikely infatuation with one of the Dwarfs is clearly meant to add a love story where the book has none, and have at least ONE strong female character its was nice to see Orlando bloom back his actions scenes were brilliant.bilboa bagins brings a kinda warmth to the story of trying to be a hero.
you know waiting for the dragon to come along was well worth the Wait as the first film teased because the action scenes story and and thing of smegal the way his character was done thing 100 times better with the dragon this was highlight of a terrific movie that the left you spellbound is nothing short of brilliant, full of detail that can only be appreciated on the, I'll award Jackson's re-imagined "The Hobbit" 9 an half stars.
