Immediately after the events of The Desolation of Smaug, Bilbo and the dwarves try to defend Erebor's mountain of treasure from others who claim it: the men of the ruined Laketown and the elves of Mirkwood. Meanwhile an army of Orcs led by Azog the Defiler is marching on Erebor, fueled by the rise of the dark lord Sauron. Dwarves, elves and men must unite, and the hope for Middle-Earth falls into Bilbo's hands.

Slow pace in the most part of the movie.

This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.

One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.

The Hobbit: The Battle Of The Five armies was a movie I both longed to see but also dreaded to see. For knowing that it was the last of the Hobbit movies I felt sad that the adventure in Middle-Earth was about to come to an end but at the same time I felt excited to see how the ending would turn out. Having read The Hobbit book before the movie came out I already knew which characters would die, and what would happen in the main parts of the story but still I looked forward to see it all on the big screen. I liked both of the two other movies and have always looked at the movies and books in separate ways as I believe the two mediums are simply too different to compare with each other. However for me this movie sadly failed on many levels, and the only thing keeping it together was the continuing excellence of the actors. The overuse of CGI really killed a lot of magic in this movie and I've heard it did so for many others as well. CGI was of course used in both Desolation of Smaug & An Unexpected Journey but not as much and in the same way as it was used here. It felt as if the production was very rushed and sadly this caused many things to simply be replaced by CGI and pointless scenes of action. And the many scenes with Legolas also annoyed me as even though I like the character and the performance of Orlando Bloom, it simply felt that it was far too much and that focusing so much time on a character who are not even mentioned in the book just felt wrong and misplaced. It is really a shame that the production company did not give Peter Jackson and crew more time to give this legendarium the ending it deserved, as it felt that much could have been improved. The scenes that are good in the movie are however very good, as once again the amazing actors/actress delivers great performances. However all in this movie ends a very unique trilogy and even though it is the weakest of the three it is still a movie that all lovers of fantasy should see (If you have watched the other two). 7/10 Good!

Loved it. Perfect? NO. Entertaining Yes Yes Yes. If you have no imagination, this is not for you. If you could watch the A Team without a problem, you will enjoy this.

When I see these movies I feel something is missing that where present in the Lord of the Rings movies which made those movies, even though they also had their faults, so much better. The films feel very stressed, like they are rushing through without any pause. There are very few scenes whore the character just sit and talk or walk and talk without anything really happening, where you can learn more about the character and the world. Lord of the rings had a lot of those scenes which I liked. There are instead a lot of extra action scenes thrown in which could work, but I feel it is a bit to much. The atmospheric slower scenes are removed for more action. Then some scenes which could have been really good are just cut short. Like when they are with Beorg or lost in the forest.I think its OK to trow in more characters an focus on Legolas more. I think the best character in the whole movie is the Elf king. I love him so much. But one thing that I strongly dislike is that many of the Dwarfs have very few lines and you don't really get to know them during all 3 movies. I remember the scene towards the end where you say goodbye to all the remaining 10 Dawrfs and I remember thinking: "who are some of these characters?" I hardly remember who some of them look like or who they where. In that sense I think its to much focus on other aspects around the Dwarfs quest that the quest itself which makes the story feel like its all around the place. But I think there are some really good and strong scenes in this movie, but the movies all and all is missing something.

I loved this movie it was emotional. I love the way Peter Jackson bought the hobbit to life not only giving a fresh look but keep with the traditional style as well. my favorite characters were the dwarfs Filli and Killi. I did like the inclusion of the female Elvin warrior Taureal it gave young girls a hero to look up to in the movie.
