It was the best of the three Hobbit films. I still think three movies are overkill but whatever!

Excellent way to end the movie and tie it into the Lord of the Rings. I'm not one for 3D, but I've watched the Desolation of Smaug and now the Battle of the Five Armies, and have enjoyed the experience.

a bit long but worth the closure

Great film, really could have done with more dragon!! 15 more minutes with Smaug 15 mins less of some of the add ins. On the whole? Loved it.
