[Review] The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug

Salam n hye everyone~!!

The second part of "The Hobbit" trilogy is now showing in Malaysian cinemas since 12th December 2013, but it premiered the night before that in selected cinemas.

"The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug" starts off with a flashback scene of how Gandalf met Thorin Oakenshield. Then the story continues 12 months later showing the journey of the company of 13 dwarves, a wizard & a hobbit, namely Bilbo Baggins.

They are being chased by Orcs throughout the story. And encountered the Elves of Mirkwood and met Thranduil, Tauriel and....Legolas, hihi~... ^_^ There is a bit of a love story between the youngest dwarf, Kili (a.k.a Thorin's nephew) and Tauriel.

The company finally reached the Lonely Mountain despite having to go through a lot of dangers on the way. Bilbo then plays his important role as the burglar to try to steal the Arkenstone from Smaug, an enormous dragon who loves jewels & gold (and can talk too)

The story ends when the dwarves fail to defeat Smaug & the dragon flies out to the Laketown of Dale to cause chaos there. Owh yeah, forgot to mention about Bard the Bowman who plays an important role in the last movie of the trilogy, which will be in cinemas next year, hehehehe... :P

If you wanna know more about the story, you could juz read various reviews online, or read the book, or....go watch the movie yourself! ^_^

Last night, Friday night to be exact, I treated my siblings to watch the movie in 3D. It was our first time watching a movie together & I thought of treating them since I juz received my first salary of my freelance translator job (plus the fact that we're fans of "The Hobbit" & "Lord of the Rings")

We watched it at GSC, Setia City Mall in Setia Alam, not far from Shah Alam & Klang. It was my first time buying the tickets online, hihi~... Although it said that the movie would start at 11.40 pm, it actually started at midnight (after all of those commercials & trailers, that is) It was a packed hall, all seats were taken, so I was grateful that I had bought the tickets 2 days earlier, hihi~...

It's a great movie & last night was an awesome memorable experience wif four of my siblings (one brother was unable to go since he's in India)

Thanks for reading & happy blogging~!!
