Long as it may seem, it didn’t feel like it since like I said, there’s a gargantuan amount of events happening in one scene that you became invested in a story only to find out you just finished a 3-hour film—no, no, no. Let me rephrase that: A 9-hour epic (13 hours if you’re counting the contents from extended edition.).
This movie was so epic that the set-up was already big itself. The scope of this thing was huge; I mean it’s literally a clash of this-and-that and that-and-this. Plus, the action scenes are enthralling. Though the latest “Hobbit” movies loses its edge when it comes to its set pieces (BTW, “Battle of Five Armies” this Friday!) because of its computer-generated effects, ‘LOTR’ though has everything on hands still decided to go practical, using CGI when it desperately need to. This became the reason why it felt more real with its fantasy setting. Can I say I still geek out when Legolas shoot down that elephant in ‘The Two Towers’? Damn, you still should be.



And if you’re gonna ask me how I rank the films, I’ll go with “The Fellowship of the Ring’ as my favorite, followed by “The Return of the King” and “The Two Towers”.
See ‘The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies’ this Friday, 12th of December, in 3D, HFR 3D, IMAX 3D, and 2D cinemas nationwide from Warner Bros. Pictures! So buy your tickets now before you end up being thrown into Mordor.
