To start, this was an amazing movie on so many levels. I never read any of the book (on purpose) so eve movie is even more anticipated and is an even bigger shock. This movie captured everything I had secretly longed for in a potter movie (even though I didn't know I longed for it). The beginning is so dramatic and tense it whipped the smile off my face that I got from the opening theme song. One of the best things about this movie is the return of so many characters which I thought had just dropped off the face of the planet after their respective role in a movie had ended. In part one.you have the return of some of harry's best allies like mad eye moody, lupin (my favorite) and even Dobbie :). But the return of the characters is over shadowed by the best aspects of the movie: the visuals, the acting and the story. It seemed that every scene in the whole movie had some special effects. The coolest effect of the whole movie is when the characters
"dissaperate" which is essentially teleporting by spinning into a worm whole or something. One problem, and the only reason for the movie not to get 5 of 5 stars, I had with this and all of the movies (which may be explained by the books) is that they bring new things in as if they existed forever and everyone knew about them. If Harry could dissaperate from the beginning he wouldn't have needed to fight off the dementors, been stuck in the tree in chamber and could have run from "you know who" in goblet. But the acting is beyond superior especially if you think about the acting in the first movie. Every actor/actress has grown in their role so perfectly that Harry doesn't look awkward when he thinks he could end up with Jenny or Hermione. Radcliffe just seems like he finally personifies Harry. Same goes for the other characters froth lead and supporting. The most important and well done thing about this movie is the storyline (as it should be
considering it was a book first). We finally get the grasp of what the story was laid out for. The puzzle is coming together and the best thing about it is it will be presented in full because we fatally have a long enough amount of time to fit everything that was said in the book. If this film were shorted to an hour and a half and both parts put into one it would've been a disaster but finally having the length of time they needed to tell the story gave everything a completely different feel. I know to some the 2.5 hour length may be a deterrent but I assure you that this movie doesn't watch like it's 2.5 hours. Unlike during 'LOTR: return of the king' I didn't once look to the clock to see how much more there was. It's an enthralling and engrossing movie that I will be watching again in the theaters and I'm sure multiple times in my living room. A must see for everyone!
