The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies
After a dragon attacks a lakeside town, a hobbit and a company of dwarves defend a mountain of treasure claimed by rival men and elves. As a vast orc army approaches, old disputes must give way to an uneasy alliance in a battle that could determine the fate of the wider world.
My takeYou’ll enjoy this if you want sweeping fantasy action, grand battles, and a dramatic Middle-earth farewell; Not for you if you prefer tighter storytelling, quieter character moments, or the balance of The Two Towers.
