Our Concluding Classic
PostedNovember 20, 2010

I recently attended the Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1 Premiere, and and must say, it was a wonderful film!!! Truly, Yates does it again by pulling our favorite protagonist Harry Potter and life long friends Ron and Hermione into an emotional and thrilling adventure to finally put an end to Lord Voldemort by destroying all the remainig Horcruxs.
And before I get into this any further, I will first elaborate my main flaws with this movie, so beware the upcoming SPOILERS. LOL Okay then, for the true Harry Potter fans, seen every movie and reread every book before watching this film, I will say I did have a few problems with this film. As stunningly visual and as faithful as they were to the film, I was disappointed with some of the major events and details that weren't in the film, and to this day I still don't know why they are not. Take the scene where Dudley finally warms up to Harry and the family makes their peace before they leave; and they just left him there with any real concern but for themselves. >:( Another big problem I had was this dance scene where Harry is trying to break the tension and ease Hermione just after Ron left; I understood what the director attempted to do, but to be brutally honest it fell flat and thought it was the worst 5 minutes of the film. And for the fans out there, I'm sure there are a few more events and things that were done differently in the film that I know who're probably cursing to the very flames of hell, as we speak. LOL I won't go into huge detail anymore, but I will say that for a huge blockbuster series finally coming to an end, and with 2 WHOLE MOVIES to work with, there could have been more time to add more important things from the book that could have easily be put in and could have replaced some of the pointless parts the production made.
With all of that being said though, this still is a great movie for HP fans and will leave everyone satisfied until Part 2 arrives July 22. The movie moves quick given the 2 hrs. and 45 mins. it has, and yet slows down when it needs to; in this case, the pacing of this film is great for getting the adrenaline going, and resting when needed. Or that was how I felt at least. LOL All in all, everything was great in terms of story, cast performances were at their very best, and to top it off making it visually gripping in both special effects and story; I think what I love most is that once Yates came in, the dialogue from the book he brings to the film comes a lot more naturally to the characters, and for a film to adapt so well in that way steals the show for me. So all and in all, this is an enthusiastic Full Price film, and I'd see the film soon; I would be certain at this point even daily matinees will be selling out sooner than we think.

Your Clown Prince of Crime
Yes, I recommend this movie.
