The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug

This is my second Hobbit review. I promise no more rants about book-splitting(that completely unnecessary and...) Nope, stopping right there. The Hobbit is about a hobbit. If you don't know what a hobbit is, it's like a midget, but not a dwarf. Because the dwarves are the dwarfs. Anyway, the dwarves recruit the hobbit and the team of dwarfs sets out on a grand adventure(that probably could have been much shor...) No, no rants! The midget team encounters many perils(Like huge trolls, stone giants, giant spiders, really tall elves, orcs that weren't even in the book, led by a really tall orc... Did Peter Jackson have megalophobia?) and LotR fanservice(Like Galadriel, Saruman, Legolas, Picture of Gimli) in their quest to get to a mountain by a specific date. Huh, I still haven't talked about the film's quality. Oh, well, good thing there's still one movie left for me to write a review for. (Although there really didn't...) Ok, ok, I'll stop.

13/16

Warning: This movie contains Legolas. If you are easily offended by violations of canon, do not watch this film. Actually, probably still watch it, because, come on, it's Tolkien.
