So it's part 2 of the Hobbit Trilogy, aka: the shortest book set in Middle Earth, which has inexplicably been stretched to the length of the Lord of the Rings Trilogy.
But I digress...
The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug stars the same (mostly short) heroes that were introduced in part 1: Ian McKellen (Gandalf), Martin Freeman (Bilbo), and Richard Armitage (Thorin).
Let me tell you, this movie need never have been made. This "trilogy" should have been a duology, tops! However money must be made, and so it was.
The only redeeming factors were that it is well acted, well shot, and the ELVES ARE FREAKING AWESOME.
That's all I have to say.
QBF Rating: 3.0/5
