Bilbo Baggins is swept into a quest to reclaim the lost Dwarf Kingdom of Erebor from the fearsome dragon Smaug. Approached out of the blue by the wizard Gandalf the Grey, Bilbo finds himself joining a company of thirteen dwarves led by the legendary warrior, Thorin Oakenshield. Their journey will take them into the Wild; through treacherous lands swarming with Goblins and Orcs, deadly Wargs and Giant Spiders, Shapeshifters and Sorcerers. Although their goal lies to the East and the wastelands of the Lonely Mountain first they must escape the goblin tunnels, where Bilbo meets the creature that will change his life forever ... Gollum. Here, alone with Gollum, on the shores of an underground lake, the unassuming Bilbo Baggins not only discovers depths of guile and courage that surprise even him, he also gains possession of Gollum's "precious" ring that holds unexpected and useful qualities ... A simple, gold ring that is tied to the fate of all Middle-earth in ways Bilbo cannot begin to know.

Movie Reviews

Philadelphia Weekly - 10/10 by Sean BurnsA bloated, entirely unnecessary cash-grab prequel suffering from a fatal case of elephantitis.
We Got This Covered - 10/10 by Jeff BeckWhile the new scenes don't add much to the great film, the outstanding wealth of special features makes this one of the must-own Blu-rays of 2013.
Cinema Sight - 10/10 by Wesley LovellIt's a journey that any fan of Peter Jackson's "The Lord of the Rings" Trilogy should enjoy.
OK! Magazine - 10/10 by Phil VillarrealLike the sad, bug-eyed Gollum, moviegoers may not have realized how much they missed movies like this onscreen in the past several years.
Schmoes Know - 10/10 by Mark EllisRegardless of the frames, dimensions, or goggles used to conjure it, "The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey" is an incredible ride and a triumphant return to Middle Earth.
Birmingham Mail - 10/10 by Graham Young( ... )despite plenty of flaws, this new forerunner to JRR Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings is set to have merit on its own terms. It's the most exciting film of 2012. And it's a technological ground breaker, too...
New York Magazine/Vulture - 10/10 by David EdelsteinThe grandeur of the Lord of the Rings trilogy [has] been replaced by something that resembles tatty summer-stock theater.
Daily Express (UK) - 10/10 by Allan HunterThe real triumph of The Hobbit is that Peter Jackson leaves you wanting more.
Total Film - 10/10 by Matthew LeylandCharming, spectacular, technically audacious… in short, everything you expect from a Peter Jackson movie. A feeling of familiarity does take hold in places, but this is an epically entertaining first course.
The List - 10/10 by James MottramPeter Jackson returns to the Middle Earth he rendered so faithfully in Lord of the Rings, and it's never looked so glorious.
