The big finish of the movie is Smaug chasing the dwarves around the inside of the mountain for an hour. Why are they spending so much time running around from the dragon? You lose the tension of a scene when it drags on so long. The dragon isn't so dangerous when he can't kill even one dwarf over such a long time. That's obviously not in the book.
The movie is an ill-conceived ragout of fantasy, science fiction, and old-fashioned romance.
