Storyline
Bilbo Baggins is swept into a quest to reclaim the lost Dwarf Kingdom of Erebor from the fearsome dragon Smaug. Approached out of the blue by the wizard Gandalf the Grey, Bilbo finds himself joining a company of thirteen dwarves led by the legendary warrior, Thorin Oakenshield. Their journey will take them into the Wild; through treacherous lands swarming with Goblins and Orcs, deadly Wargs and Giant Spiders, Shapeshifters and Sorcerers. Although their goal lies to the East and the wastelands of the Lonely Mountain first they must escape the goblin tunnels, where Bilbo meets the creature that will change his life forever ... Gollum. Here, alone with Gollum, on the shores of an underground lake, the unassuming Bilbo Baggins not only discovers depths of guile and courage that surprise even him, he also gains possession of Gollum's "precious" ring that holds unexpected and useful qualities ... A simple, gold ring that is tied to the fate of all Middle-earth in ways Bilbo can not begin to ...
Reviews
The joy of reading the Hobbit is that it's a humble and somewhat gentle tale for children. Quite why Jackson et al have decided to turn it into a 3 episode overblown epic is unknown. Well, apart the extra money of tieing people into 3 films instead of 1. However, the cracks caused by the necessary padding (the book itself is smaller than a single Lord of the Rings tome) appear almost immediately the film starts, with rambling exposition and tedious backstory (inaccurately elaborated on from Tolkien's appendices and Notes) taking up Some 90 minutes of The pre-journey film.
Once Things GET underway We are Set for new lows as The 'Humour', Which up to Now Has merely Been forced But dreary, becomes childish with snot jokes and toilet seat thrones making a 'comic' appearance. Yes the Hobbit is a children's book, but you'd not take a child to see the film as it has its fair share of decapitations etc, so do not make adults sit through 'jokes' only a 5 year old will laugh at. Oh, and I daren't even mention the bunny pulled sled! Narnia more than Nazgul, and far more Harry Potter and Twilight fans than to Appeal to Likely, California Tolkien devotees, Indeed This is painful.
All Characters are forgettable with small exception of The Gandalf and Bilbo. The 13 Dwarfs meld into one and are all forgettable and interchangeable. We then have the de rigeur trawl through battle scenes, no dount in an effort to generate that LOTR nostalgia. But where in The epic LOTR Trilogy Were they engagements, here they are laborious Affairs Engagement with no personal, no Sense of peril, Just an Excuse for a battle on Screen.
Then Azog There is a backstory with Pale Orc, with a one dimensional Villain none of the motives of Sauron, the machiavellian nature of Saruman, or the deception of The Nine. Again, nothing here for Easy for Children to Understand But an Adult.
We Deus Ex Machina of Abuse Then Have a massive, Deux Ex Machina with Gandalf literally being a walking machine (Just as well as smoke rings and His Magic amounts to a FEW Some lights). Perhaps the book is like this, I can not remember but things seem far more noticeable on film. Perhaps because we are adults now such writing sticks out like a sore thumb, or perhaps Jackson's treatment of the material and the new writing just throws it into sharp relief. Whatever, it Feels Just hackneyed.
Anyway, Your alarm to wake you up by Set to Remember The Time This rambling, overly-verbous Has Finished and nauseous mess.
