The Hobbit

Bilbo my spirit animal

A great, feel good film retelling one of the best stories written

Old and trippy animation. Lowkey a vibe

Rating: 7.3/10

A charming, nostalgic adaptation capturing the folky heart of Tolkien's novel.

Highlights
- Unique Visuals: Inspired by Arthur Rackham illustrations, with gritty, earthy character designs.
- Legendary Voices: John Huston, Brother Theodore, and Richard Boone deliver standout performances.
- Iconic Soundtrack: Folk-ballad theme "The Greatest Adventure" sets the tone.

Criticisms
- Fast Pacing: Short runtime rushes key plot points and omits some characters.
- Outdated Animation: May feel stiff and limited by modern standards.

Verdict
A fascinating piece of animation history and love letter to Tolkien's work. Recommended for Tolkien fans, 70s animation enthusiasts, and families.
