Film Format Seen? Imax 3D 48 fps
Will view again in a different format? Yes
I enjoyed the movie immensly, the pace was neither to fast or to slow it felt as if i was reading the book and the scenes where flowing through my mind, time (chair anxiety) did not come into play Colours spectacular, costumes brilliant, dwarves as you'd imagine orcs,trolls and goblins grotesque. The resolution on this format truly amazing close up of the characters revealed the smooth baby like face of Bilbo to the aged weatherd landscape of Gandolf. and then their is Golum,Radagast,Elrond & Galadrie.
The best Bilbo's inital dinner with the Dwarves, Radagast scenes, the large scale panoramic shots (roving, fleeing, engaging)
The least when they where in the mountain caves while they camped the rock faces of the caves did not look real.
I give it an 8.5
Richard Armitage 's performance as Thorin?
Bilbo's retelling of the history of Erebor and of Thror/Thrain/Thorin
The Eagles rescue sequence?
