Title: The sound is horrible
Review: This is a decent adaptation of my favorite book ever, however the sound got horribly edited for some reason. The best example is when the dragon Smaug is flying around, screaming, breathing fire, wreaking havoc...and all you hear is utter silence. Many times the mere background music overpowers the dialogue and some lines were cut making some scenes not make any sense (the escape in the barrels for example). The special features aren't worth mentioning, the characters on the front cover don't resemble how the appear in the film, the summary pretty much says The Hobbit is the first part in The Lord of the Rings trilogy (which is blatantly incorrect), and the case is so cheap it might as well have been an envelope. I'm returning my copy and I'd suggest that if you want to see this movie then dig in the closet and pull the old Beta version out cause you'll have a better experience.
