A visual feast with a solid story, some decent gags, and a surprisingly compelling introduction of the new Big Bad of the MCU.

Some brilliant moments set the stage for a phenomenal tale, but it's the bum notes that will be remembered.

The epic conclusion to the greatest trilogy. It doesn't just stick the landing, it smashed it into another universe. One with elves, and orcs, hobbits and wizards.

One of the greatest battles put to film, combined with an incredible middle chapter of the story. Phenomenal.

The incredible start to an incredible trilogy. Still hits hard.

Had everything it needed to be great and then just takes the concept of overkill to a whole new level.

Mirkwood, Lake Town, and an awesome Smaug make for an epic adventure 

A decent attempt at the concept, though ultimately I'm not sure how much the concept was needed.

Nothing novel, but entertaining enough with some nice character moments.

Ridiculous yet fun enough.

Fun creatures and a simple, yet consistent story make for an enjoyable ride 

A fantastic overview of both the history and state of British conservation – specifically rewilding – directly from one of the people at the core of that community.
