Game Informer: 8 / 10 by Joe Juba

The more lighthearted tone of The Hobbit works great with the Lego style, with lots of fun moments

Full Review

Post Arcade (National Post): 8 / 10 by Chad Sapieha

Warner Bros.' latest plastic block adventure is a blast, but also a bit misleadingly titled since it only covers the first two films.

Full Review

IGN: 7.4 / 10 by Steve Butts

A fun and charming extension of the film that nevertheless suffers from some disted story problems and some sameness of characters.
