the hobbit: desolation of smaug

Rating: 9/10 (27 March 2014)

In my opinion this one of the best movies of 2013. The film is a bit long, but that is not a problem because the film has a very nice storyline. I recommend everybody to watch it at the movie theater. And if not, it is certainly worth to buy the DVD, because it is such a fantastic movie. It is such a great movie because the environment where the story takes place is so detailed that it is like u are also in the film. What's also good about the movie is that the costumes are also realistic and they really fit in the film. But sometimes, it is like the film is a game and the graphics aren't that good and detailed. But apart from this is a really good movie. There are also some great close ups and some well filmed followings. The film goes about 14 dwarfs who get the help from a hobbit and wizard named Bilbo and Gandalf. They go on a quest, in which they need to reclaim their homeland by finding the Arkenstone. On their quest they meet some elves named Legolas and Tauriel, who will help them fight the orks. As a matter of fact they needed their help to get to the lonely mountain where the dragon (Smaug) guards 'his' treasure. The gold and other valuable things, which the grand-father of Thorin, the king under the mountain, has gathered in his greed. They also meet Gandalf, who gives them directions but he doesn't go with them to the lonely mountain. Gandalf searches for the necromancer, who is hiding in Dol Guldur to regain his strength. When they reached the lonely mountain, there was a moment when they thought their quest was all for nothing. Though Bilbo finds the solution and they found the entrance to the mountain, because he was patient. Finally got into the mountain it was now time for Bilbo to do what was asked of him, finding the Arkenstone. In spite of all his effort, he wasn't able to get the Arkenstone because Smaug, the great dragon, woke up and tried to kill them. And if you want to know the rest of the movie, you will have to see the movie. The leading actors are Legolas played by Orlando Bloom, Tauriel played by Evangeline Lilly, Thorin by Richard Armitage and Bilbo by Martin Freeman. The movie is directed by Peter Jackson.
