Hobbit 2: Revenge of the Hobbit: 5.5/10
I can't believe how mediocre this movie felt, as I really enjoyed all the LOTR movies and even Hobbit 1. But it felt like everyone was totally just going through the motions. Peter Jackson relied on the old trick of old making the music stop for dramatic effect, then building up sweeping orchestral music after dramatic quote is made or action is taken about 500 times. The barrel ride was probably the worst part of the whole movie, as it felt like a total videogame, and there was zero tension. No tension in really the whole movie. Only part I enjoyed a little was Bilbo interacting with Smaug, but there was no real tension there, either. Disappointing.
