About the film
Beyond darkness... beyond desolation... lies the greatest danger of all.
What it’s about
Bilbo, Gandalf and thirteen dwarves have crossed the Misty Mountains and now press on toward the Lonely Mountain. There they must face the dragon Smaug, a creature more terrible than any enemy they have met, and the outcome will test their courage, their friendship and the path they have chosen.
What hooks you
Peter Jackson directs this second part of the Hobbit trilogy, with Martin Freeman as Bilbo and Richard Armitage as Thorin. The film won an MTV Movie Award for Best Fight and a Saturn Award for Best Production Design. Orlando Bloom returns as Legolas, and Evangeline Lilly appears as Tauriel.
Who it’s for
It suits viewers who enjoy large-scale fantasy adventure with a journey into danger, and those who like stories where a small hero confronts a vast, ancient threat.

Trivia
All facts 10
- When Thranduil almost notices Bilbo, you can see that he is wearing contact lenses.
- When spiders attack the group in the forest, Bilbo Baggins puts on the ring and hears what the spiders are saying. At one point he takes off the ring but continues to hear the spiders.
- In the scene at the 145th minute, Bilbo falls from a collapsing stone platform and rolls along the floor; during the final turn, it is noticeable that his sword bends from contact with the ground. It is clearly a "rubber" prop used for the falling stunts.
- When Bilbo first runs into the Hall of Kings through the archway, Smaug knocks down the tapestries above it. In the next shot, Bilbo is already running far from them, away from the entrance.
- When Smaug ignites the furnaces with his fiery breath, the wooden objects on the floor remain intact.
- Legolas's clothing changes from scene to scene: in the Woodland Realm he wears elven armor, during the chase after the dwarves he wears a green cloak, then during the interrogation of an orc he is back in armor. When Legolas meets Tauriel, he is once again in the green cloak.
