Review of The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies (2014) by Guywhoreviews — 26 Dec 2014
Over-hyped, overrated and disappointing. The third and final installment in the Hobbit trilogy is disappointing for LOTR fans who have seen all the movies and read all the books. It's obvious proof that the Hobbit movies were dragged out way too much.
I could understand two movies, but having a third movie was clearly to make more money and ended up ruining the experience. As much as I loved the book, this movie fails to maintain anything close in quality to the book.
The acting is fine, but the movie itself is just a failure to the book. The fight scenes are far too long and are way too convenient. The important characters can literally fight off hundreds of orcs in hand to hand combat until the plot demands otherwise.
The story is too slow and the fighting is too extensive. As much as I hate to say it, this hobbit movie is disappointing. Read the book or if you're a die hard fan watch it, but don't expect much.
