Synopsis

The closer you get to your goal, the tougher the obstacles tend to become. Peter Jackson's "The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug," the second film in his trilogy based on J.R.R. Tolkien's novel, follows Bilbo Baggins (Martin Freeman), Gandalf (Ian McKellen) and 13 dwarves led by Thorin Oakenshield (Richard Armitage) as they press on toward the Lonely Mountain to reclaim the Dwarf Kingdom of Erebor. Along the way they meet the shape-shifting Beorn, battle the giant spiders of Mirkwood and are captured by Wood-elves led by King Thranduil (Lee Pace), Legolas (Orlando Bloom) and Tauriel (Evangeline Lilly). After a daring escape in barrels, they're smuggled into Lake-town by the bargeman Bard (Luke Evans). At last, Bilbo must face the greatest danger of all: the dragon Smaug (voiced by Benedict Cumberbatch).
