The Hobbit--An Unexpected Journey (MOVIE)

It's December 18 and you know what that means? The Hobbit--An Unexpected Journey is showing in the cinemas!!! It was released in the cinemas in Malaysia on December 14.  I just watched it yesterday at MBO cinemas with my mum, and it was A.M.A.Z.I.N.G. The movie is the adaptation of the book but of course with more action. In case you don't know, The Hobbit, will be divided into 3 films. The first is An Unexpected Journey which was released a few days ago. The second is The Desolation of Smaug, it will be released in 2013, a year away -.-.  The final one is There and Back Again, it will be released in 2014. 

13 dwarves and Gandalf showed up in Bilbo's hobbit hole at bag end. Bilbo ended up going on a mission with them (reluctantly) being the 14th member excluding Gandalf. The mission to reclaim the dwarf's homeland which was being conquered by Azog (the beast).

The sceneries were stunning, from the beautiful Hobbiton to the enchanting Rivendell. The movie started with Old Bilbo (Ian Holm) lighted a candle, he's writing his book about his adventures when Frodo (Elijah Wood) asked his dear uncle what was he doing. Then the scene went back to the young Bilbo. 

Everything pretty much the same as the book, Rivendell, the trolls, the goblin tunnel, Glamdring and Sting. There were also some cute and funny moments with the dwarves and of course who can forget Gollum and Bilbo's Riddle Game. But that one scene triggered me during the movie... 

When the company was climbing the mountains in a storm at night, the lightning struck the peaks of the mountain, causing boulders to fall down, what's worse? The mountain giants arose, they started to have their own "battle", they lifted up boulders and began throwing at each other, at one point you could see them wrestling. The company, as you know is a big company of 15, they all struggled through the mountain with difficulty and some nearly fall. When the mountain giants were fighting, the force caused the mountain path to split into two with the company being separated apart. One side of the path belongs to another mountain giant's hand. (This part was very exciting!) 

Part of the company had to jump back to carry on when the fighting ended. When they finally managed to get on their feet,  they realized Bilbo was not with them, he's hanging off the cliff edge. Now, Thorin didn't like the idea that Bilbo joined their company and he said that Bilbo was a burden and shouldn't be in the company at all. Anyway, he pulled Bilbo up and told him that he shouldn't be there. I felt very sorry for Bilbo, it's really mean of Thorin to say that. Anyhow, they moved on and found the goblin tunnel and that's where it all continues...

Bilbo got separated from the company and met Gollum, while the dwarves and Gandalf were being taken away by goblins to the Goblin King(of the town). He's big, fat and hideous. Thorin managed to cut his stomach with his sword. The Goblin King backed up and fell, that's the end of him :/ The company then escaped the goblin town (most epic part of the movie). Bilbo, too, escaped with the ring which Gollum dropped when they were fighting, he found himself became invisible when wearing the ring and so he could outrun Gollum. And he finally joined the company again when the company thaught that he had decided to run away.

This is new in the movie: After they escaped the town, they were chased by wargs (out of the frying pan; into the fire ). They climbed up the trees to advoid the wargs. They ended in different trees. Gandalf and Thorin and a few others were on the tree which is on the cliff. On the ground were wargs and goblins, and Azog (the goblin king)((the real one)).  Then Gandalf got an idea. He took an acorn from the tree and set it on fire, he then threw the acorn down to the wargs, the company followed Gandalf and soon the forest was on fire. The wargs ran away. Thorin soon realized that Azog was still alive (previously, he thought he had killed him in a battle when Azog killed Thorin's grandfather) Thorin wanted to finish Azog once and for all but he failed, he got knocked down. Azog then ordered his "minions" to chop Thorin's head off. Out of the blue, Bilbo scrambled back to the ground, pulled out Sting (the sword given by the elf) and fought off the goblin who was about to chop Thorin's head.

Bilbo stabbed him several times furiously and the goblin was finally dead (Bilbo proved himself  that he was actually not that worthless). Bilbo then turned to Azog, who was going to kill him when suddenly all the dwarves ran towards Azog (the company were inspired by Bilbo's courage). Thorin seemed motionless, his eyes were close. Before that, Gandalf had sent for the eagles and the eagles came just in time. The eagles dropped boulders on the wargs and picked up the dwarves and poor Thorin. The eagles settled them down on a platform, everyone rushed towards Thorin. Gandalf chanted and Thorin opened his eyes, thankfully :D. He then asked for Bilbo and got up. This was what he said to Bilbo (more or less)  : "What were you doing? Remember that I said you were a burden, you shouldn't come on this journey. I'd never been so wrong in my life. "*hugs Bilbo* The other dwarves cheered! (he finally realised)

That was the most touching moment ;) The movie ended with Smaug opening his eye.
