The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug is a 2013 epic fantasy adventure film directed by Peter Jackson. It is the second installment of a three-part film adaptation based on the 1937 novel The Hobbit by J. R. R. Tolkien. It was preceded by An Unexpected Journey(2012) and will conclude with There and Back Again (2014), and together they will act as a prequel to Jackson's The Lord of the Ringsfilm trilogy.

The Desolation of Smaug is set in Middle-earth sixty years before the events of The Lord of the Rings, and portions of the film are adapted from the appendices to Tolkien's The Return of the King. The wizard Gandalf the Grey (Ian McKellen) investigates a growing evil at Dol Guldur, while Bilbo Baggins (Martin Freeman) continues his quest with thirteen Dwarves, led by Thorin Oakenshield (Richard Armitage), to reclaim the Lonely Mountain from the dragon Smaug (Benedict Cumberbatch).

MMG Movies Review

After watching Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey and Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug. This part focus on "Smaug". An enormous, strength dragon that talking like a human. It can kill all living things by fire from it mouth. This part prepare for the final war of "Smaug" and thirteen Dwarves. Not only Smaug stories but this part show me about relationship between Wood Elves female warrior named Tauriel. They capture the dwarves and imprison them in their fortress, where Kili begins to have feelings for Tauriel. Bilbo so important for this part because he can help his team so much, he can help Dwarves many time with his excellent idea. So, this part of movies will let you enjoy the adventure of the Dwarves, the romance love of Kili and Tauriel and the warrier skill of the wood Elves or the origin of Legolas that will prepare you for the third part of the "Hobbit" stories. 

Enjoy.
