| michael_stutzer said: Calling it mediocre is being generous to be honest. The stupid relationships, CGI that you can tell from a mile away, cheesy scenes etc. etc. I thought the first film was pretty good save for a few scenes and had high hopes for the second one but it was one of the biggest dissappoinments ever. I'd rather read the book for the fifth time rather than seeing the film in cinema. |
I liked the films, but this is one thing I can certainly agree with.
In Lord of the Rings, the orcs and other monsters and the set pieces looked so amazing. Everything looked real. In the Hobbit films however, you can indeed clearly see they're all CGI. The troll-king, Bolg and Azog, they're all quite underwhelming when viewed against Lurtz from Fellowship of the Ring.
I do hate it in general though, actors in make-up just beat CGI any day.
