Let's be real - we all knew that HP7 both parts 1 and 2 would be gut wrenching. Well the Piper wants his bill and yes, HP7p1 is an emotional ride.
The imagery and the very real fact that the characters and the actors portraying them have grown up through the course of 12 years on screen with us.
I loved Hermione's role and how Emma Watson portrayed her strength. EW really carried this movie on several fronts. The production and direction were amazing and I'm very proud of how the story came to fruition on the screen.
Just like my MAC, Star Trek comes across very intuitive, sexy, smart and stylized. I applaud JJ Abrams for this effort. From the Spock -Uhura love story (soo cute) to the omages to each of the characters (Bones and Scotty are my faves), I can't believe the movie moves this fast!
Its not for the die hards who want Star Trek cannon to continue but for those who hated the series (me), mocked its fans (me) and scoffed at the idea of resurrecting the franchise (me). In any case, it was very enjoyable.
I really walked in with no expectations. The movie was funny and chock full of action. There are some slow moving parts and there are few puzzle pieces that do not make sense but hey - creative license.
