Title: Poor print of a wonderful film
Review: My review is for issues with the DVD print, not the actual movie. In fact, I love this version of "The Hobbit" and watched it multiple times as a child. I purchased this DVD to refresh my memory of the movie and compare it to the book before seeing Peter Jackson's live-action version of the story. The story and animation hold up, but the print is ATROCIOUS. As other reviewers have stated: the print is too dark, the sound mix is terrible, and the picture jitters and skips. This print is nearly unwatchable, and that is such a pity because this film really is a classic and deserves better treatment.
Is the review positive or negative?
