The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies

[juanonimo]

A estas alturas ya no es un debate, comparado con su trabajo en LOTR, la trilogía del Hobbit (y sus versiones extendidas) son un tremenda decepción.

BLU RAY.COM REVIEW

The extended editions of Peter Jackson's Lord of the Rings films are widely considered superior to their theatrical version predecessors. You'll find few fans who'd argue otherwise. The opposite has proved true of The Hobbit trilogy, though. The extended cuts of An Unexpected Journey, The Desolation of Smaug and now The Battle of the Five Armies take three bloated, over-stuffed movies and make them even fatter. With Armies' 164-minute cut, indulgence remains the driving force, extra snippets far outnumber full scenes, and bloodshed -- of the distracting, detached-from-the-series R-rated variety no less -- is really the only addition of note. A few decently strong character beats and touching moments have been tacked on, particularly during the new and improved battle with Sauron and at the end of the film, when several heroes are laid to rest. But this isn't LOTR. Opinions will of course vary, but the theatrical version of The Battle of the Five Armies strikes me as a bit better than Jackson's latest, and likely last, foray into Middle-earth.
