What it’s about
After Smaug falls on Laketown, the mountain stronghold of Erebor holds a vast treasure that several factions claim. Bilbo and the dwarves must hold it against the survivors of the ruined town and the elves of Mirkwood. Meanwhile, an orc army under Azog the Defiler marches on the mountain, driven by the rise of the dark lord Sauron. Dwarves, elves, and men are forced to unite, and the hope for Middle-Earth falls into Bilbo's hands.
What hooks you
Peter Jackson directs the final chapter of the Hobbit trilogy, with Martin Freeman as Bilbo and Ian McKellen as Gandalf. The film won the Saturn Award for Best Fantasy Film and a Saturn Award for Best Supporting Actor. Howard Shore's score and Christopher Lee's last role add to the film's appeal.
Who it’s for
It will appeal to those who enjoy large-scale fantasy battles, intricate world-building, and stories where personal choices determine the fate of kingdoms. It will also satisfy viewers who appreciate a sense of closure to an epic journey.

All 9Trivia
All facts 10
- Azog wounded Thorin through the ice in the leg, but later, when Bilbo stands over Thorin, his intact soles appear in the frame.
- In the scene where Thranduil orders the retreat to be sounded, Gandalf addresses him to send a company to help Thorin. After Thranduil's reply, Gandalf calls him by name. At that moment, you can see that Gandalf is holding his old staff, which was destroyed in the second part of the film.
- When Legolas defeats the orc that falls onto the bridge and, along with the bridge, falls into the gorge, you can notice that there are no corpses there, although there should be at least the corpse of the giant orc and two ordinary orcs.
- When Thorin Oakenshield falls, he is shown at the edge of an icy cliff, but when Bilbo runs up to him, he is lying near a staircase.
- The film is based on John Ronald Reuel Tolkien's novel "The Hobbit, or There and Back Again" (1937).
- Despite appearing in all three films of the trilogy, Cate Blanchett spent only eight days on set.
