A simple story told well in a majestical setting (that is a real word isn't it?) beats CGI hands down every time. NZ wilderness is the real star, but watch out for Murray from Flight of the Concords. It's a great cast and they all shine in this movie based on a book. You'll be cheering on the under dogs as they are hunted across the wilds of Hobbit land. It's a lovely funny story set in chapters from the director who gave us Eagle vs Shark and What We Do In The Shadows. Can't wait to see his treatment of Thor. You will be using quotes from this movie in your vernacular for years to come. I found myself clapping as the credits rolled.
