What we love about Harry
PostedNovember 28, 2010

from San Diego, CA
This film has breathed new life back into the Harry Potter movies. After seeing Half Blood Prince, and being disappointed, I was concerned that we were going to be offered the half told story from here on in the movie series. There were many parts of that story that were left out all together or changed so much in the screen version of Half Blood Prince that at many times I felt I must have read a different book. I was pleased to see that Deathly Hallows follows the book much more precisely. Even with a runtime of 2 1/2 hours, I found myself wanting more when it ended. The story, action and suspense really kept up a good pace. I saw it with a friend who has not read the books but has watched the films and he found some of this story difficult to follow. Even split into two films, I can see where information critical to understanding all that is going on is lost in the screen version but this is not a fatal error for this film. Our three main stars have grown up into some impressive acting talents and these talents come through in many scenes where they interact on a more emotional level. Overall this was a very enjoyable movie. One detractor was that I paid extra to see the IMAX version but found that this was not an IMAX theater, just the biggest screen at the local theaterplex and not very much like the real IMAX, so check carefully before spending the extra.
Yes, I recommend this movie.
