Review

Middle-earth's got its mojo back. A huge improvement on the previous installment, this takes our adventurers into uncharted territory and delivers spectacle by the ton. --Empire, Nick de Semlyen

This is a rip-snorting, barrel-riding adventure movie perfect for all ages, as they say (though it isn't for very young kids) loaded with fast-paced fight scenes, great-looking effects and enjoyable and/or scurrilous supporting characters. --Salon.com, Andrew O' Hehir

The Desolation of Smaug is, on the whole, a vast improvement over The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey. It's a popcorn movie (in the best sense) disguised as deep-core nerdism. --Austin Chronicle, Marc Savlov
