New Zealand: Day 64: Cinema - The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey

John invited me to cinema, to see the new movie, that was taken in New Zealand, the Hobbit, directed by Peter Jackson. We went into Embassy Theatre in Wellington. After the movie we had a nice beer in The Malthouse.

The first part of another trilogy - The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey, 2012

16,5 NZ$ for a ticket, movie was 3D in HFR (High Frame Rate)

The movie was a little bit long for the story itself, since some parts don't really affect it, still it's worth to see it.

Martin Freeman as Bilbo Baggins
