The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug



In the second installment of The Hobbit trilogy, which is prequel to the LOTR, the Dwarves along with Bilbo Baggins and wizard Gandalf, the Grey continue their journey to win back their fallen Homeland from the fiery , fire breathing Dragon. The journey is indeed a swift one and it has all the ingredients that made LORT  an all time classic. There are the familiar orks, the Elves,  the 'precious' Ring, the spells; everything except for Gollum. The action sequences are again on familiar lines, but do we ever get bored of classics?  The sets and locations are incredible and  feast to eyes.

A LOTR and/or Peter Jackson fan cannot afford to miss this flick. It sets the stage for the Grand Finale.


My Rating : 4/5
