Epic Ending

I've seen this movie now 4 times and I enjoy it each new time I view it.
Granted some scenes have been deleted/altered/changed for the film; the true power of the book comes through with this latest and now final, movie.
Once again the music adds to the sweeping nature of the film and helps it build momentum. It also helps to keep the situations Harry and co. face quite suspenseful.
The 3D is not necessary here, but the Gringotts sequence is great as well as when the audience 'flies' around the castle. While I would have rather had select scenes in 3D and not the whole movie, it doesn't take away from the experience.
In conclusion: IMAX 3D is the way to go....!
Yes, I recommend this movie.

Bigger Action & Robots

Does size matter??? Well I left this movie thinking... not really.
This movie should not be taken seriously... it's a pure escapist summer movie. The Transformers are bigger and there is a lot more action throughout. The movie is also funnier simply because the gags/jokes are more prominent throughout.
Seeing it in IMAX made the whole experience that much better & I think if I had watched it in a normal theater... I'd probably wait for the DVD for my second viewing. However, I'll watch it one more time in IMAX before the DVD drops.
Good sequel---- not great, just good.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

The hype surrounding this movie has grown tremendously in the past few weeks and let me tell you... the hype is all true. Your eyes are glued to the screen from start to finish... and the main reason...(besides the story- which is epic storytelling) was Heath Ledger.
His incarnation of the Joker is iconic and something that should definately not be taken on by any other actor in the distant future.
This movie has already reached new heights in pre-ticket sales and hype before its debut. It will continue to smash records and definately be one for the ages.
Just another comic book film? Epic story come to life.
Yes, I recommend this movie.
