Wait and then check for the reviews when they release the extended version, maybe that fixes it.

I loved the original trilogy and I even liked the first two Hobbit movies more than most. This was just rushed. It feels like Peter Jackson just had to make three movies but by the third his heart just wasn't in it. Some of the dialogue is cringe worthy, and the pacing is all lopsided and wrong.

Really? The only way to forgive it is to look at it as a weak part 3 in a 6 part series, and NOT the last part of a trilogy. if you look at it that way, you don't anticipate the stakes being as high, you don't expec the same sort of climaxes and resolutions that you get in ROTK...

But yeah. It's bad. I enjoyed it **ENOUGH** at the theaters, but it got worse and worse the most I thought about it. And it wouldn't have taken much for me to enjoy it and defend it before all the haters.
