Movie Review: The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies

the-hobbit-the-battle-of-the-five-armies-poster1It's nice to finally see a Hobbit film with a conclusion... Now if only it had a beginning and a middle. I'm not a fan of the idea of splitting this story into three parts and I am not a fan of seeing characters that weren't in the book added, (or created even), just to increase the running time of these films. This one at least was the shorter of the three, but it felt very much like a long ending. There was little time for build-up or retrospect. It jumped into the action and never let go, but not in a good way. In any case, at least it's over now and I'm happy to see it go. I love Martin Freeman's Bilbo. it is the only thing that allows me to actually feel something during these films, and luckily, unlike the last one, he's actually in most of this one.
