I am not a LOTR geek but I like the films.

I watched a total of about 30 min before I simply gave up on it.
I don't know if it is just my computer, but the fight scenes were BAD. They were all choppy and confusing. The shot cuts for the fighting was so bad that it looks like every single damn stab or thrust is 500% staged. And it's impossible to follow.

Why would they hunt for Gollum? What type of threat is Gollum? Gollum just walks around talking to himself. Once in a while he gets beat-up by school kid bullies. Don't they have better things to do?

poor Gollum....wasn't his fault that the ring turned him into a crackhead.
