Harry Potter And The Deathly Hallows Part 1 is like eating Chinese food. You may seem full, but 20 minutes later hunger sets in! Part 1 of an epic 2 part finale to this pop culture phenomenon was fantastic! The movie ends with the same feeling as your favorite television show cuts to commercial during a cliffhanging moment! If this is your introduction to the Harry Potter series you will be disappointed. Fans of the books and movies have developed a relationship with these characters over the years and have followed their progress religiously. The plot line follows closely to the book, and the visuals custom to the other Potter films will not disappoint! I was on the edge of my seat from beginning to end dreading the wait until July for closure! Ron, Hermoine, and Harry are as close as ever and for the first time do not return to Hogwarts. Harry is on a final mission to destroy the remaining Horcruxes in preparation for his final showdown with Voldemort. In addition we finally get the back story on Harry’s cloak of invisibility! Alan Rickman is wonderful as Professor Snape, and Ralph Fiennes is Lord Voldemort! The only bad thing about seeing this film is realizing the series is at its conclusion. Except for DVD, this is the last time you will hear Expecto Patronum!
I have to admit I love this post. It really is sad in retrospect because I started reading Harry Potter back in 3rd grade. I have, as you so aptly put it, followed Harry Potter religiously throughout the year. I always have been kind of disappointed with the movies, and I have yet to see the new one. For some reason I think there will be an eighth book, just an impression I have gotten.
