Well, heck, I just love all things Rings and Hobbit, and this is a definite conclusion to all that, but frankly, after the first twenty minutes of dragon-slaying, I was sorta pooped and began to think, “Yeah, hmmm, okay, I feel like I’ve seen this movie already…about, what, maybe 5 times?” There’s only so much wandering, woe-is-ing, and wondering one wants to do in his life, and watching these beloved characters do it one time too many was tough. I enjoyed it, but perhaps as much for “ending” as “existing” in the first place.
