One day, a curious Hobbit, Bilbo Baggins, meets
wandering wizard, Gandalf, who persuades him to share an adventure. Bilbo
embarks on a journey to the Lonely Mountain with a vigorous group of Dwarves to
reclaim a city stolen from them by the dragon Smaug.Anyone who has read Tolkien’s beautifully crafted books might recall that “The Hobbit” is incredibly thin, especially compared to the classic trilogy of the Lord of the Rings. Thus I found it hard to believe hat Peter Jackson, the acclaimed director behind 3 Lord of the Rings movies, which won lots of different awards and made New Zealand famous, managed to collect enough material to make 3 movies out of “The Hobbit” book. Honestly, this looks more like a filthy attempt to steal the money from Tolkien fans around the world than a diligent way to condense the book which sets the scene for the LotR trilogy which still is the golden standard in fantasy writing.
