First of all when I watched Yates' other two movies of HP (Order of the Phoenix and Half-Blood Prince) I thought they were great because of the cinematography, effects and other stuff. Then I realized the story was left out. Most teenagers who read the books (including me) hated the two films especially Order of the Phoenix because it's like the thickest book but has the thinnest interpretation in the movie. The book itself is the story why do they have to leave things out?

Getting back to the point... "So Far" Deathly hallows is the most loyal movie to the book but I'm not saying that it has every detail of the book (they left things like the "ghoul in pajamas" and Lupin's argument with Harry etc..). What I'm saying is, for the first time I saw the true beauty and magic of the book and this was it the Deathly Hallows and I didn't regret watching this.

Yeah I know MOST of the viewers of the movie falls asleep or leaves the cinema too early but you should know that the story is really like THAT. Try reading the book (half of it for part 1) and you will see as if every chapter they're "camping" and NO SCHOOL is seen. SO for this movie don't expect a LOT of fun (there are some funny moments but are short.) and dancing and teaching of spells or ghosts. This story is already mature and I don't think it's advisable to watch this with your kids anymore (6-10). This movie is all about "EMOTION and SADNESS, PAIN, and HOPELESSNESS" but it is portrayed in a great way.

I would also like to commend the "Deathly Hallows story telling scene" it's really artistic and creative, this alone can be the trailer of the movie. Well I hope you find my movie review helpful. For those who haven't watched it... Watch it in the cinemas NOW or you can wait for the DVD.

I give this movie a rating of 8/10
