Rating: Epically awesome!
The film is the second in a trilogy of films adapting the enduringly popular masterpiece, The Hobbit, written by JRR Tolkien.
The film takes place in the beautifully-created fictional world of Middle-Earth, 60 years before the events of The Lord of the Rings took place.
The story centres on Bilbo Baggins (Martin Freeman), as he accompanies Gandalf the Grey (Ian McKellen) and 13 Dwarves, led by Thorin Oakenshield (Richard Armitage), and the addition of the elf Legolas (Orlando Bloom), as they embark on a quest to repossess the Lonely Mountain from the dragon Smaug.
The film is filled with action and wonderful graphics.
It exceeded my expectations, always keeping you on your toes, with something new waiting around the corner.
