I suppose when one has done something like the fantastic Lord of the Rings trilogy & the Hobbit movies, people like me tend to expect more greatness on that level. No so with this movie. It was OK and probably worth seeing on the big screen for the CG effects, but the story line and characters did nothing to endear the movie to me. Neither did the actors. They were, imo, all ACTING. I didn't care about the characters at all and I LOVE action & fantasy movies and see every one of them generally. While not being horrible, it was kind of boring. Oh! I almost forgot, a bit of saving grace for me was Hugo Weaving...I have liked this actor since I noticed him in The Matrix movies. And he was exceptional in the LOTR trilogy.
