  I actually don't see the choice to break them up in to three parts as much of an issue. Really good films have been adapted from short stories (and Benjamin Button) and no one complains about that. I even get how narratively, it might make more sense to tell the story in three parts. From what I've seen of them though, I do think they're hugely bloated. They could have made three 2 hour films and I probably would've liked them a lot more.

  For me this film will be more beautiful and thrilling than previous two films because there will be the final battle between orcs versus dwarves and elves and the final battle with the dragon Smaug. I advice to all to see this film on cinema. I will be on the first row when the film will be released ;)

  Not a massaive fan of the Hobbit trilogy of films. For me personally they are not in the same league as the Lord of the rings movies. Dont get me wrong, i will still watch the final part but i will wait for it to appear on dvd. I found myself having enough trouble staying awake while watching the first 2 installments at home. Sitting in a darkened cinema, i dont like the odds of me staying awake. I have just found the Hobbit movies a little boring.

  Earlier today i finally got around to seeing The Hobbit : Battle of the 5 armies. Have gotta say, despite being a little bored with the previous 2 installments, i actually really enjoyed this final part. Cant draw comparisson to The Hobbit book as i have never read it. More serious than the previous two, darker, a lot more action, visually stunning. If in deed it is the last ever movie associated with The Hobbit / LOTR, for me, its finished on a high.

  Saw the last two films and wasn't impressed as it is so different from the book. Found not bad, actually a lot better than I thought it would be. Jackson has put in links to the 1st lord of the rings film and so feels a lot longer than it needed to be. Worth seeing at some point.In the spirit of the Lord of The Rings however the film appears to dwell on long battle scenes, good effects and worth booking a VIP seat.

  I watched this the other week and it was ok. The effects are excellent and the acting is good, it's just as others have said a lot has been added by Peter Jackson to these films for the sake of padding out and I agree the story could have been told in two movies nicely. Just made this last film feel a bit too drawn out in my opinion. Having seen all the Hobbit films now I have say I do prefer the Lord of the Rings movies over them.

  Oh, the whole Hobbit trilogy could have been condensed down to a couple of movies. I never read The Hobbit so is was unaware that some of the tie in scenes to the Lord of the Rings movies were not present in the book. I found the whole spectacle of the last one entertaining. It was the only one of te 3 Hobbit movies that i managed to see in 1 sitting, rather than falling asleep. I did definatly prefer the Lord of the Rings movies though.

  Was an excellent film. Though as always the book is better than the film. especially when the film places characters that aren't even in the book.

  True phoenixgamer8890, but nowadays most people simply don't have the time to sit down and read the books sadly. I know I would love to but I can barely get time to watch the movie. After finishing this movie, I did really want to go back and watch all the lord of the rings again though, but it would pretty much take up a whole day!
