This movie was AMAZING!!! My husband and I usually look up movie tickets last minute… not for this show. We booked weeks in advance to ensure our seats. I was engaged the ENTIRE TIME. There was literally not one moment or one scene where I thought “this adds nothing to the movie, are you just trying to drag this out?” Every scene in the movie is a masterpiece. The cast, the acting (top tier), the costume design, the music, the scenery, the character development….. SO AMAZING!!!! I am a big fan of LOTR, and Hobbit…. And this is right up there with them it was that good!!!! You definitely want to watch this on the big screen!!
