The popular "The Lord of the Rings", only three episodes is obviously not enough. Fortunately, the original "Lord of the Rings" is a huge book (my French teacher said the original book was "a thousand times better" than the movie, but it still failed to inspire my patience to read the original book), you can take some chapters at will, just Can make a movie of more than two hours. The story in "The Hobbit" is just the first step in the long march of the dwarves to find their lost homeland. More than a dozen dwarfs, even a group of little devils hiding in the ground, almost couldn't handle it, and they didn't know how to regain their lost homeland from the dragon.

If you comment on the original work of "The Lord of the Rings", it should be said that it is a synthesis of "Journey to the West" and "The Complete Works of Jin Yong". The dwarf country, the elf country, the creatures in the underground, the dance of demons, and all kinds of "people" appear in turn. The dwarves seem to be the most tragic, and they have no magic power at all. The scene where a group of big birds picked up the desperate dwarves immediately felt like "The Legend of the Condor Heroes".

Tiny and mediocre in appearance, Martin Freeman played a frustrating-looking Watson in the BBC's modern Sherlock Holmes and remains a frustrating character in The Hobbit . But his importance should be shown in the sequel. In his play against the dwarves, he relived the gags with Sherlock Holmes, which was very interesting.

The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey quotes

  • Thorin Oakenshield: You think that's funny? You think a night raid by Orcs is a joke?

    Kili: We didn't mean anything by it.

    Thorin Oakenshield: No you didn't. You know nothing of the world.

  • Gandalf: The Elves could help us, we could get food, rest, advice.

    Thorin Oakenshield: I do not need their advice.

    Gandalf: We have a map that we cannot read. Lord Elrond could help us.

    Thorin Oakenshield: Help? A dragon attacks Erebor. What help came from the Elves? Orcs plunder Moria, desecrate our sacred halls, the Elves looked on and did nothing! You ask me to seek out the very people who betrayed my grandfather, who betrayed my father.

    Gandalf: You are neither of them.
