I never read move reviews before seeing a movie but after seeing the Hobbit I read some reviews and totally disagree with the critics. I have read the Hobbit about 7 times and read it about 6 months ago. Not only was the movie beautifully shot and well directed and all that cinema stuff but the story was amazing. The additional scenes that were not included in the book and the expanded story lines added depth to the story. The references to occurrences from the Silmarillion (sp) were right on and for me it helped to prolong the magic.

I highly recommend the movie.
