   One of the darkest and one of the best

   *** This review may contain spoilers ***

   If you're a hardcore HP fan then I'm sure this movie will not
   disappoint. The first of the last, this film really does have to
   perform, and perform it does.

   The mood of the film is a dark one, one of the darkest. As it turns
   out, Harry Potter gets darker and more depressing as they go along.
   However, what do you expect? Harry's adventures aren't designed for
   laughs, even though there still are some. It seems there is a little
   less action in this film. It focuses more on the characters themselves:
   Harry's quest to defeat Voldemort, Hermione's regret having left her
   parents and Ron's feelings for Hermione. Yes, there are still some
   fighting sequences from the start, but you have to remember that
   there's still another film, and those who have read the books will know
   that jinxes, curses and punches are plentiful in the second half.

   As for the acting, you get the impression that the film makers have
   called over Daniel, Rupert and Emma and said "look, this is the last
   film, OK? Let's make it a good one". As a result, the performance has
   improved dramatically. Superb timing, I think. Voldermort and Snape say
   very little in this new instalment, though you still feel their
   presence in some way or another.

   Despite all these fantastic additions to the film, I still have a few
   complaints. Even though the book is split into two parts, the writers
   have cut some of my favourite scenes out. They completely missed Dudley
   shaking Harry's hand and toned down the torture scene with Hermione and
   Bellatrix to retain their 12A rating. I would forgive them, yet I
   discover that they have gone and added completely unnecessary sequences
   to fill them in. I personally loath the scene where Harry and Hermione
   start dancing. It ruins the feeling of the moment, so you end up
   thinking "huh?". When Ginny asks Harry to do up her dress, you wonder
   why the writers have included it. Surely they could've shown their
   relationship better than just showing off skin. I also think that the
   trios journey into the Ministry of Magic dragged on a little, and the
   miming was quite obvious.

   Nevertheless, I still think it is one of the best films in the series,
   and Voldermort flying through the air was one of my favourite moments.
   It certainly leaves an impression on you when you leave the cinema.

   Disappointing but visually stunning

   *** This review may contain spoilers ***

   I was eagerly anticipating the first part of the Deathly Hallows but
   found it to be disappointing. I understand the need for simplification
   for those who haven't read the book but it seemed to me that the
   screenplay was over-simplified especially when it came to the main
   characters.

   There was no suggestion of Harry's desire for the Elder wand and his
   torment at choosing the Horcruxes. There wasn't even a mention of the
   invisibility cloak which Harry has owned since the beginning! It was a
   great looking film however, and because of this and the fact I love the
   books I think it deserves a 6/10. Worth seeing but totally lacking the
   character depth and not even a hint of the subtle complexities of the
   books.

   1 Word amazing !!

   This is such an amazing film you can't not like it, its the second best
   one yet and seeing as I'm a horror fanatic it was quite scary for a
   harry potter film which made me enjoy it even more than i did the
   storyline is brilliant the use of the deathly hallows story background
   was immense and the acting as usual was amazing I give this 9/10
   amazing film !!!!!! There is just something about this film that leaves
   you with an amazing happy feeling but an eager feeling for the second
   one . However warning this film may scare younger children it doesn't
   just say 12 for nothing . This is a must see film hopefully it is due
   out on DVD soon .
