The first chapter in Peter Jackson's new epic trilogy set in Middle Earth 60 years before J.R.R. Tolkien's Lord of the Rings saga. Follow Bilbo Baggins as he's swept into a quest to reclaim the Dwarf Kingdom of Erebor, long ago conquered by the dragon Smaug. Approached by the wizard Gandalf, Bilbo joins a company of thirteen dwarves led by the legendary warrior Thorin Oakenshield. Along the way they face many dangers; Bilbo meets Gollum and takes possession of the 'One Ring.'
"Piles on enough eye candy and action sequences to please fans, plus more humor than the three 'Rings' films"--New York Post.
"Jackson and company retain the wonder and majesty they brought to LOTR..."--Toronto Star.
"...A fantasy-film cornucopia, with mythical creatures and grand battles woven into an old-fashioned adventure-narrative..."--Newsday.
"...A fantasy with the power to haunt your dreams."--Rolling Stone.
