Nice review, although my impression is that you haven’t seen the first part? Or read the book? Not being critical, but most of us would probably have related our remarks to how acurately the movie portrayed the book. I am anxious to see it!
And if you’re a reader at all, you’ll love the book ;-)
I am starting “The Lord of the Rings” tonight.
Should be titled
“BASED ON ‘The Hobbit’”
