The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey

"I am a dyed in the wool Tolkien fan. So I was excited for the movie. Then they said it would be three movies. Well... This was a short children's book that was fleshed out unnecessarily in my opinion. As a dragon lover, I enjoyed the time with Smaug but some stuff (the random she elf added for a love story with one of the dwarves that didn't appear in the book for instance), really got on my nerves. That said, I like this first movie and it's the one I rewatch. "

"An unexpected journey is actually a pretty good movie. Now keep in mind I watched these before LOTR at the behest of family because they said I wouldn't enjoy the hobbit movies if I had watched them in theatrical order. I agree. These movies are more childlike and funny. It feels like a marvel film, whereas LOTR is almost a war movie. If you're thinking of watching LOTR, watch these first "

"Awesome movie"

"27 animals died in their own sh**. F these guys"

"The extended addition of An Unexpected Journey is spectacular. My favorite thing is that Peter Jackson made the prequels in a way that syncs up with the later Lord of the Rings films. Who was Bilbo to Frodo? What was the story of the dragon under the mountain? So good."

"Tolkiens book, The Hobbit, was the first to get me into the fantasy genre. Peter Jackson and crew does a fantastic job at bringing it to screen. "

"My daughter and I wanted to rewatch all of these but we only got through four of the six. I could watch these over and over, ad nauseum. "

"⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️"

"On adore"

"Some fun parts but I found it a bit boring. Too many scenes of killing and calling it glory. "
