Watching it tonite. 

not really like this, at most 6.5/10 from me. actions were non-stop from start to finish but there were some flaws from here and there.

1) smaug went down way too easily. the whole chapter 2 talk about smaug and he went down in like 10 minutes from the start. would prefer smaug to struggle a bit but



2) what the hell is wrong with those eagles, always come so late. and they seem invincible, 3 combine army of elves, human and dwarf can barely hold against orcs but an army of eagles totally destroy them easily. and yeah, where the hell all the bats gone.

3) a bunch of fisherman can fight on equal ground with orcs, meanwhile 2 war races elves and dwarf almost lost their entire army.

4) what happen to king of ironfoot towards the end? would prefer extended version to at least story a bit
