Review of The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies (2014) by Dukejon — 09 Jan 2015
1. film starts as the previous film should have ended. death of dragon.
2. by time dragon is dead whole town destroyed anyway.
3. why bard's son's head not sheared off by daddy uses him to kill dragon.
4. an hour of "a war is coming".
5. thorin changes character. again.
6. street fighter battle with sauron.
7. battle starts. if orcs had waited an hour they would have had a far easier battle as elves would have killed dwarves by then.
8. hours of cgi. orcs are really tough and well armoured by they are beaten up by men, elves, dwarves and old human women.
9. suspense of disbelief violated. walking up falling debris.
10. unfunny comedy turn in a dress.
11. hour of mini boss battles.
12. gandalf fills his pipe.
13. auction in the shire.
And finally.
14. eagles come in at the last moment to win the battle. again.
