The Hobbit Part 1 is one of the most boring films ever made. I like a slow burning film, but it is utter gash. TBF the book is pretty twee and stupid, but to turn it into 9 hours of film, wtf, you could read the book quicker.
Apocalypse now is a genius sprawling mess, made by people who cared but became slightly unhinged on drugs. The Hobbit in comparison is a cynical attempt at bleeding the Hobbit fan dry of their cash.
