Some people think the movie split is just a ploy to make more money, but I totally disagree. I think the reason why this movie felt so much like the books and the character depth was so much more believable is because they had so much more time to build on every scene. This was without a doubt my favorite HP movie thus far. Of course certain scenes have to be left out and/or changed for time even in the longer movies but everything about this film was so potent! The black horcrux cloud for instance was incredibly well done and so much more potent than I could have hoped for. The cinematography was beautiful and there was a lot more action than the overly critical critics would have you believe.
