It's a long movie and therefore doesn't feel rushed like some book to film adaptations. If you're a lover of Tolkien's book you may find a lot unrecognizable. This is not a movie that follows the book like a script, it's quite different. In my opinion, that doesn't make it a bad thing, but if you are a lover of the book you should at least know it's not exactly the same before watching this fun and entertaining movie."

I always like rewatching the party at Bilbo's place and Bilbo running out of his home to go on an adventure! "
