These is some of the most beautiful 3d images i have ever seen, rivaling avatar for detail,depth and integrated storytelling. the cgi characters brought the art to a new level, I often found them more compelling than the human actors (not wild about a lot of the dwarve's casting!). in the pivotal riddle scene , Gollum was amazing,even more so than lotr, the subtleties of his thoughts and emotions made Bilbo seem one dimentional (another casting doubt!).I had thought that there would be much more pointless padding to a very lean story, but the epic sweep of the art direction and the dark intensity from the earlier films made this a very different hobbit from the original. I love the fact that Shore carried on the musical themes he had used in lotr and of course Mckellen is magnificent. Forget the critics. see it!
