The best yet, sets the stage nicely for the grand finale

Rating: 7/10 (14 April 2020)

The decision to split the Deathly Hallows into two parts was not just welcome, but basically imperative. We are finally able to see a more comprehensive telling of the story and the film is all the better for it.
There is a significant leap in quality in the Deathly Hallows, in terms of both entertainment value and production quality. It is far more atmospheric than it's predecessors and the quality of acting is significantly improved.
The story whips along without feeling rushed or compromised and the whole film is gripping and enjoyable. Had all the movies been of this quality, the Harry Potter film series could have been legendary.
