THE HOBBIT THE DESOLATION OF SMAUG is part two of Peter Jackson's three part adaptation of J.R.R. Tolkien's novel. This is an extended version.
- Violence
Moderate violence includes a number of battles as the heroes fight giant spiders and orcs. These include sight of orcs being decapitated, including with a head held up, and orcs being shot with arrows, including arrows which pierce their heads. There is also frequent use of bladed weapons. The fighting is fantastical and lacking any emphasis on blood. It is very similar to the action seen in the previous film in the series, as well as that seen in THE LORD OF THE RINGS trilogy.
- Threat
There is threat when a character is bound in a giant spider's web and when the character is pursued through a dark forest as they attempt to escape. There is also threat from the dragon, Smaug, who breathes large blasts of fire, and brief threat to children from attacking orcs.
THE HOBBIT THE DESOLATION OF SMAUG also features mild sex references and brief sight of injury following an arrow wound to a leg.
