The Hobbit: The Battle Of The Five Armies

From Peter Jackson comes The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies, the third in a trilogy of films adapting the enduringly popular masterpiece The Hobbit, by J.R.R. Tolkien. The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies brings to an epic conclusion the adventures of Bilbo Baggins, Thorin Oakenshield and the Company of Dwarves. Having reclaimed their homeland from the Dragon Smaug, the Company has unwittingly unleashed a deadly force into the world. Enraged, Smaug rains his fiery wrath down upon the defenseless men, women and children of Lake-town. Obsessed above all else with his reclaimed treasure, Thorin sacrifices friendship and honor to hoard it as Bilbo's frantic attempts to make him see reason drive the Hobbit towards a desperate and dangerous choice. But there are even greater dangers ahead. Unseen by any but the Wizard Gandalf, the great enemy Sauron has sent forth legions of Orcs in a stealth attack upon the Lonely Mountain. As darkness converges on their escalating conflict, the races of Dwarves, Elves and Men must decide – unite or be destroyed. Bilbo finds himself fighting for his life and the lives of his friends in the epic Battle of the Five Armies, as the future of Middle-earth hangs in the balance.

This movie was just as good as the other Hobbit movies.  In fact, I think that this one was actually paced a lot better than the previous two chapters.  I still have to say that both this movie and all three parts of The Hobbit while great and completely entertaining are not close to the same level of the Lord Of The Rings trilogy.  I don't know if it was just that it was one book that was stretched out to three segments or what, but it was just missing that LOTR level of awesomeness.  Still great.  Just not as great.  We're not talking Star Wars prequels from the original differences.  I would watch the Hobbit movies again unlike the Star Wars prequels (except for certain parts).  It's just not as good as LOTR.  I laugh every time I review one of these because I just say the same thing for all three.  

I would still recommend people checking this out.  It was very entertaining and paced much better.  Plus it's not 3 hours long like most of the other entries.
