It is common knowledge that I was disappointed with An Unexpected Journey. I did give the film a score of B, but the quality of the film itself rather than my existing goodwill bestowed savings of trilogy The Lord of the Rings (LoTR) decades ago. If no saving goodwill is hard to imagine the film scored higher than C from my eyes. It means The Desolation of Smaug has the opportunity to be able to satisfy me remember the weight savings goodwillku've spent entirely by the prequel. Can Peter Jackson and the crew of The Hobbit step up Reviews their games to make a fantasy movie that memorable?

The Desolation of Smaug continue the adventures of Bilbo and his companions dwarfs the group led by Thorin Oakenshield heading to the Lonely Mountain that contains the dwarf treasure lost but also guarded by a giant dragon Smaug. At the beginning of an adventure that takes them to the forest shelter Elf, Gandalf the Grey decided to part ways with the group because he felt a greater evil forces working behind the scenes. So next trip without its strongest members.

The entry of the group into the forest of Mirkwood was greeted with antipathy of the Elf who has long been hostile to the dwarfs. Thorin is annoying behavior did not help. After all, they are arriving at this place means also an opportunity for the audience to be reunited with one of the old favorite characters LoTR trilogy: Legolas. Met with a variety of new characters who become friends as well as opponents on their way, whether the group Bilbo finally get to the Lonely Mountain and took back their treasure from Smaug?

You who was already disappointed with An Unexpected Journey please do not then leave this trilogy. The Desolation of Smaug is a drastic improvement compared with the first film, although the way the story is much changed from the novel. The large portion of Legolas in the story, the introduction of a new Elf Tauriel figure (played by Evangeline Lilly's popular series Lost) arguably shows how the novel The Hobbit is actually no need to be divided into three parts, but on the other hand became the strongest aspect of this film because many action scenes choreographed by Peter Jackson could be developed because of this two-Elf. Action set-piece barrel in the river is a far improvement compared to the first film is filled with action scenes are generic and boring.Please visit here

The emergence of the dragon Smaug also feels very eagerly awaited by audiences since his first film and his performance was disappointing. CGnya quality feels very alluring and real. The dragon can talk also filled with heavy voice casting of Benedict Cumberbatch in. It fits even see how the two exchanged conversation made ​​me realize how much I miss the appearance of Benedict Cumberbatch and Martin Freeman in the new season of Sherlock. Both are career together and I am happy to see both of them still hold together until now. Psst ... Sherlock Season 3 will premiere early 2014 lo.

Outside Smaug as new characters introduced in this movie I did not like how the other new character Tauriel the start of the romance with Kili is the weakest point in this film and the Bard played with less convincing by Luke Evans to us sympathetic with his past. The old characters in this film is still very focused on Bilbo and Thorin and this is a good thing and bad. Once again Martin Freeman is the highlight of this film as Bilbo figures show that slowly but surely transformed into a formidable figure adventurous clever and resourceful. Richard Armitage as Thorin appear more annoying. I assume the appearance Armitage was so bad that it is difficult for the audience sympathetic to her. Then I realized that it looks like it was written by Tolkien as Thorin most useless protagonist. Poor Armitage.

Various beautiful locale of Middle Earth from the forest of Mirkwood to Erebor once again created a beautiful and filled with detail by Peter Jackson in the movie this time. Not only are chic setting but also the CG of the creature (other than Smaug) appear smoother. CG is a strong impression of prekuel slightly eroded this time where fantasy figures like Azog look more real on the screen.

Once again The Desolation of Smaug is not without drawbacks. The climax is a bit too long, the ending is a cliffhanger too, until the interwoven love stories of forced Tauriel (why provide only original female Elf character to give him the love of obscure patch?) Could not make it to some of the instant classic first LoTR trilogy. But the way the story is starting to have a bigger vision (not just looking for treasure), the action choreography is more attractive, as well as the emergence of Smaug and Legolas make I can not wait for There and Back Again next year.
