Yup, movie review time again - now with added "view from the actual seat!"
So, 48 frames a second, 3D... just what WERE the public expecting from the first of the now THREE Hobbit movies? An "Episode 1"-style disappointment? Well, I have never understood the bile vented towards the "first" Star Wars trilogy, although they do have a different feeling to them (different era, different politics, people). The same is true of Hobbit I, but that isn't a bad thing.
( Spoilers? Maybe not, but here's the warning... )
The Final Verdict... The original journey begins, and does not disappoint. There's a certain "been there seen that", but it doesn't detract from an excellent cinematic experience. 8/10
