Quite good.

Doesn't blow your socks off in the same way that the LotR trilogy did, but it's still exciting.

But I'd wager more people are interested in how the 48 FPS works out rather than plot details and comparisons to the book, and my answer to that would be: it's fine, you get used to it eventually, though it's not entirely necessary and it only works best during the battle scenes. Other than that, it adds nothing other than an obvious reminder that you are actually watching a film, since the doubled frame rate highlights the artificiality of the digital effects, if that makes sense.

Anyone else seen it yet? I'd do a lengthy in-depth review, but I can't be arsed right now.
 
Really enjoyed the movie. I saw it in a plain old Regal Cinema theater. I had no interest in the IMAX, 3D, or 48 blah blah blahs.

I recently read the book (take that people who think I'm illiterate). What stood out to me was the set design and Jackson's ability to make the Dwarves interesting. I never got the feeling from the book that the Dwarves had much to offer. It was nice to see Gollum again. I hope Jackson finds a way to give him another scene. I would also like more from Saruman. I don't remember him being in the book at all but since they used him in this film I think it would be nice to learn more about his change to the dark power.

Definitely excited about the next one. Curious to see how Jackson portrays Beorn.
 
I liked it. Far better than the old cartoon version from the 70's.... I have not read the book so the old cartoon was the only previous material I was familiar with. Seeing The Hobbit made me want to watch the Lord of the Rings movies again.
