The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug (Review)

Bilbo Baggins (Martin Freeman) and his dwarf companions travel thru several seemingly insurmountable obstacles to reach the mountain where the dragon sleeps. This continuation of the story is full of action: chases, fights and confrontations. Some of it’s inventive, but much is just noisy and busy. Freeman manages to add some mild comic charm with his character, but otherwise the story is all serious. The visuals and threatening creatures are convincing, but there’s little about this installment that’s a visual wow. Mostly, it’s just solid movement forward. Fans should be thrilled, while regular moviegoers will not be bored.
