In this movie, two main characters who are already well known in other movie series which name is The Lord of the Rings presented, Bilbo Baggins and Gandalf. One day, Gandalf visited Hobbit’s village and meet Bilbo. Gandalf wanted Bilbo to join his journey, but Bilbo rejected his offer at once. So, Gandalf made a plan to take Bilbo to his journey. He planned to have a party and invited all his friends at Bilbo’s home. As a result, Bilbo’s house was filled with Gandalf’s friends. Finally, Bilbo participated in Gandalf’s journey. And during his journey, he met numerous threats like meeting Goblins, Trolls, and any other aliens. He overcame these adversities, and finally he got to the old castle where the great dragon lived.
This movie is very similar to The Lord of the Rings. First, some characters who were presented in The Lord of the Rings (e.g. Gandalf, dwarfs) presented in this movie too. It shows that characters and stories in this movie may potentially relate to other movie series. Second, the main stream of this movie is really same with The Lord of the Rings. In this movie, Bilbo went to the journey even if the journey had no any relation with him. His journey is like Frodo’s in The Lord of the Rings. Also Bilbo and Frodo both were helped by elves when they faced with hard situations. Third, both movies mentioned Good VS Evil. Bilbo went to his journey to fight with the evil dragon in this movie, and Frodo in The Lord of the Rings went to his journey to fight with the dark lord whose name was Sauron.
This movie is made from the famous novel. It contains a lot of spectacular scenes and funny characters. Sound tracks which are contained in this movie are awesome. But, its running time is pretty long. It is almost three hours! I think that it is too long. So, I would give three stars (★★★☆☆) about this movie.
