movie made into an epic-like film (e.g. Lord of the Rings-esque). though it felt a bit long at times due to the story itself, the overall film was a must-see! i would not have missed the midnight showing and i am glad i went. i grew up reading the series and watching all the films. the ending of this movie does a nice job setting up the last installment and makes you antsy for the last potter film to be released. the movie also includes comedic moments without going overboard (especially since the movie is so dramatic already). because the last book was filled with so much action and drama, i am glad this movie was split into two films. if everything was crammed into one, it would have left out SO much. every actor was doing a fine job and i appreciate the film! i can't believe the end is near.
