Personal Ratings: 3

I find that for this part, there was almost no emphasis on the main characters. The show was really flat. I'm not sure why, but I feel that the climax for this show was not really showed properly. So when you look back at the show as a whole, you would feel like there was no climax.

For me, the thing that I really liked about this movie was the elfs. I love the way they fought. Really swift and composed. Loved the way they fought using the bows and arrows. Also kind of liked the humor they put into the show. I think it's funny how the dwarves keeps getting captured.

There were some really dry parts, and some that really got me really tensed. But I think the reason why this movie still feels kind of boring is because of the length. It was really loooong. Like it almost hit 3 hrs.
