The Book (J.R.R. Tolkien) and The Movie (Peter Jackson)

Rating: 8/10 (18 December 2013)

I won't is good neither bad. There is some part that is very much interesting that you can read in the book but wasn't shown in the movie, which is quite disappointing.
No doubt, some part of the movie is interesting and there is some part of the book is interesting. I would say Peter Jackson DO have his creativity and telling the story.
Overall, best part of the movie, Mirkwood was the most interesting part. In terms of character Thranduil and the interior (although it just the scene of dungeon and throne room only). In the book it did not mention who is the Elven King, Legolas and Tauriel.
I was really immerse into the story until it ends by the way... A great way to end to make me more thirst for the next Hobbit.
