Summary and Review[]
“ The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey is the first film in a new trilogy of films from director Peter Jackson. Now, you've probably seen The Lord of the Rings films unless you've been living under a rock, but The Hobbit is based on an earlier, shorter book written by legendary author, J.K. Rowling. This makes The Hobbit technically a prequel and thus pointless. Follow the adventures of Bilbo Baggins and a group of dwarves as they attempt to reclaim their dwarven kingdom from the clutches of an evil dragon named Smaug.
— Mike Stoklasa”
