Such a great movie

Rating: 10/10 (18 April 2011)

I can honestly say this movie is just fantastic. If finally hits you how much Daniel Radcliffe, Rupert Grint and Emma Watson have grown up, and how their acting has developed tremendously. The beginning brings back the memories of the three normal little kids who, ten years ago, set out to become wizards and a witch.
The enormity of what their task is does hit them at times throughout the story, and it almost breaks the trio up. But they pull through, always fighting, always getting stronger.
The story has also become a lot darker- yes, we knew something as dark and dangerous as this would someday come, but now it's finally arrived. They are constantly in danger, constantly being watched.
The great thing is that there is some comedy. Of course, the famous and popular house elf Dobby returns, along with Kreacher (who isn't as funny obviously, but still, how great these little creatures are). The romance also offers a light-heartedness to the film, which at certain points is much needed. We don't get to see much development of the Harry/Ginny relationship, but a huge leap is made to the possible relationship of Ron and Hermione.
I thought this film was truly brilliant. A huge congratulations to the cast and crew, and of course, David Yates, the wonderful director. A great triumph once again.
