The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug - Movie Review


Saw "The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug" on it's first opening week.  I have to say it is better than the first, if you saw the first part of this movie. Although I think this movie, does not know what it wants to be at times.  You still have head decapitation, then cutesy dwarf intricate actions.  Which make me question who is exactly is their audience?

How was the Visuals?
Visuals are good, although it's really cheesy on the camera angles at times.  You will think the angles are taken that way as if to make you awe at the action sequence.

How was the Story?
Story was good, and they made the right decision to create a new character, that is not in the book to make it more interesting.  You won't notice the changes if you haven't read the book.

How was it overall?
Overall, I rate it a 4 out of 5 stars.  It's better than the first, and far more entertaining.  But will not keep you awake if you are sleepy.

If you haven't seen it yet, see it in 3D, most say it is better viewed that way, especially the dragon scenes.  This movie is almost 3 hours long...
