Or the western "Journey to the West" good-looking

Zhou Xingxing should take a good look at this one: how to make similar magical themes suitable for all ages, without excessively bloody and terrifying scenes; how to make 3D more authentic; how to perfect makeup and costumes.

Although there are no surprises in the plot, and the characters of the protagonists are not too distinct, the unfolding of the story is still very attractive. The main actors perform well. The middle part can be slightly shorter.

I have to mention the unparalleled beauty of New Zealand.

There are a few songs and dances that make people laugh. Will we see more in the next installment?

Almost five stars.

There is another movie to look forward to next year. Be sure to watch the IMAX version!

8.5-9 out of 10

The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey quotes

  • Bilbo Baggins: I have... I have never used a sword in my life.

    Gandalf: And I hope you never have to. But if you do, remember this: true courage is about knowing not when to take a life, but when to spare one.

  • Dori: Mr. Gandalf, can't you do something about this deluge?

    Gandalf: It is raining, Master dwarf, and it will continue to rain until the rain is done. If you wish to change the weather of the world, you should find yourself another wizard.

    Bilbo Baggins: Are there any?

    Gandalf: What?

    Bilbo Baggins: Other wizards?

    Gandalf: There are five of us. The greatest of our order is Saruman the White. And then there are the two Blue Wizards... You know, I've quite forgotten their names.

    Bilbo Baggins: And the fifth?

    Gandalf: Well, that would be Radagast the Brown.

    Bilbo Baggins: Is he a great wizard, or is he more like you?

    Gandalf: Well, I think he is a very great wizard... in his own way. He's a gentle soul who prefers the company of animals for others. He keeps a watchful eye over the vast forest lands to the East, and a good thing too. For always evil will look to find a foothold in this world.
