The Hobo: Desolation of Smaug...
... is terrible. Just a warning, don't expect too much from it. I saw it tonight and there were times where I just had to look away, put my forehead on my hand and slowly shake my head.
But maybe you'll like it, I don't know. This is an action movie slightly inspired by elements of The Hobbit, nothing more. |

I wrote a review and even submit it to IMDb (too many 10/10 user reviews at the moment). This is it, pretty much spoilerless:

That's a shame. Thought it was going to be an improvement over the first one. Really would have preferred a single tight movie.

Yay, my review is up on IMDb. I hope some people will find it useful. Well, An Unexpected Journey was criticized for being too slow. And now the sequel is fast in the scenes that are based on the book, but slow in the new scenes. Maybe you'll like it. It's still worth watching it on the big screen I think. |
Re: The Hobo: Desolation of Smaug...
I absolutely hated the first one. I went back and re-watched all the lotr films after and there was much of them that I didn't enjoy either, but, all the boring stuff in the lotr films eventually led to some epic battle or some amazing scene. The Hobbit never did that.
I hate to say it too, because several of the actors in the hobbit are excellent. Just great actors in a shitty film. |

Re: The Hobo: Desolation of Smaug...
This movie is # 1 ever right now. For some reason, I dont think IMDB is going to care about your bad review. But you should probably go see the new Bieber movie. Just for comparisons sake. The directer said the movie could have come out last month, but Bieber wanted it to come out on Christmas because he said "Jesus has enough fame, I want to become the new Jesus. People should celebrate me."

#1?
It's sitting on #133 in the top 250... and it's dropping. And I'm going to buy 10 Bieber tickets just to support the guy!! |
Re: The Hobo: Desolation of Smaug...
I enjoyed it, but yeah, it doesn't compare to the first three LotR movies.
I miss the orcs being dudes in suites. The CGI in these movies looks worse than it the visual effects did in the old ones. I think there are less miniatures being used or something, I'm not sure. Smaug looks amazing, but other effects that were also present in the older movies just doesn't look as good. |
Re: The Hobo: Desolation of Smaug...
Still haven't seen it but happened upon this.
