Hobbits are simple folk. Small people with hairy feet, they are not cut out for adventure and prefer to laze about and eat. A particular hobbit, Bilbo Baggins (Orson Bean), is taken by surprise one morning when the mighty wizard Gandalf (John Huston) knocks at his door. Soon Bilbo finds himself inducted into a party of dwarves bent on reclaiming their mountain from the deadly fire-breathing dragon, Smaug. Insisting that the timid Bilbo is a master thief, Gandalf insures the danger-loving dwarves that the quest will include many mishaps and perilous encounters with goblins, trolls, and dwarf-eating spiders. Among other things that the reluctant Bilbo discovers on this amazing journey is an enchanted ring that turns its wearer invisible, and soon the hobbit transforms from a master bumbler into a master burglar.

From the position of once a truly devoted (perhaps annoying to others) and now perhaps deserving Tolkien fan, I still have to give it three stars despite many incomprehensible scenes. The Hobbit is not a bad movie, but compared to Jackson's trilogies or the actual book mythology, it obviously doesn't hold up and should be taken only as a standalone fairy tale with a nod to the knowledgeable ones. Gandalf, Bilbo, and the dwarves are fine, as well as the songs, because adapting Tolkien himself with all the digressions is no joke. But if someone turns Gollum into a crossbreed of an alien and a frog, twists the noble elves into greenish creatures, and turns Sméagol into an oversized jackal, then the impression of a pleasant adaptation is suddenly gone. Not to mention that the bearded Elrond with stars around his head will haunt me in my dreams.
