COMMUNITY REVIEWS

Battle of the Five Armies submitted by SBNB on June 19, 2015, 7:56pm Meh. It was mostly one long battle. Not very interesting, in my opinion. Oh well.

Action submitted by SLDV on August 1, 2015, 7:11pm Very action packed.

Great actors submitted by jiac on August 28, 2015, 8:35am Fine performance from the actors, but the plot is too action packed.

Cool submitted by arjlib234 on August 29, 2015, 11:36am Splitting the book in three parts actually inhibited the story in my opinion, but the battle in this movie was still very cool and action-packed.

Hobbit submitted by yenkong on August 29, 2017, 11:03am Great production. Love it.

Good submitted by anacoluthon on August 21, 2018, 8:27pm Three movies was asking a lot of a short book like The Hobbit.. However it has a great cast and a score by the incredible Howard Shore, which were enough to win me over!

Incredible submitted by lstorc on August 27, 2018, 6:43pm This Hobbit film was spectacular cinematically and then the art of blending both The Hobbit and the Simalarian.

great submitted by yufamily on August 18, 2019, 4:10pm Non-stop fun

Not great submitted by brooksza on August 15, 2022, 11:04am Pretty dull and looked so bad for 2014. By this point we'd had 4 seasons of Game of Thrones which makes this pale in comparison. Just really bleh unfortunately.

The Howard Shore Score was excellent though.
