'The Lord of the Rings' trilogy had taken some time to grow in my mind and imagination as I had not read the book before watching the movies - was too young and immature actually. But this time, with 'The Hobbit', revisiting Middle-earth made me connect easily and it was a smooth liking on my part. Can't wait to watch the remaining parts of the prequel trilogy!
Unexpectedly good. Unexpected - because I did not think that Peter Jackson can recreate the magic of TLOTR movies. But I was pleasantly surprised.
I am happy to note that Peter Jackson hasn't got a bit jaded in his treatment as he embarks on this new set of trilogy - the prequels to the classic L.O.T.R trilogy. This first installment is vivid, energetic and experimental as well (with the updated technology used).
Longish, and a bit repetitive (in the stretched battle sequences), but enjoyable on the whole.
Loved the film! Thanks for sharing my passion for the Hobbits, bro!
