Fun with some slow parts

I knew that it would not please everyone that Deathly Hallows was divided into two parts. I thought a better place to split would be when Ron returns, but that wasn't the case.
There were certainly slow parts during the Horcrux hunt, but I think they are necessary to show how frustrating that effort was. The actors playing the Trio worked wonderfully together (no surprise, having done so for 10 years!).
I found the moments with Harry & Hermione (the impromptu dance that wasn't in the book, and the scene in the graveyard on Christmas Eve) particularly touching. And as one who just does not see how Ron & Hermione belong together, I definitely did see Ron showing much more care for Hermione than the book gave him credit for.
The action scenes were great fun (I loved the wand battle in the diner).
It definitely had a very dark caste (just as the two films prior did), and the build-up to the ultimate conclusion was done quite well.
The theatre crowd I attended with seemed to really enjoy the film, though the abrupt ending left us all muttering somewhat. Bring on part II next summer!
Yes, I recommend this movie.
