Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 1 might be my favorite Harry Potter movie yet. I devoured each of the books and have read them multiple times. I very much enjoyed the first two Potter movies with their attention to the books and details, but have felt that the more recent movies have been too rushed, leaving out what I thought were very interesting smaller details and ideas.
I completely agree with one of the other reviews that this movie allowed for more character development but still had plenty of action. The most exciting for me was that the movie paid very close attention to the book. For the first time in a long, I didn't leave the theater thinking, "Was that movie supposed to based on the book I read? Completely different..."
