The boy who live... is still living

Rating: 8/10 (17 November 2010)

The journey of Harry Potter finally come to the end. The three friends Harry, Hermoine and Ron once were kids and now they are young wizard and witch.
The part 1 of the final chapter of HP7 did a good job in explaining what happened, what is happening and what will happen. The pace of the entire 146mins film catches the audience although some scenes might be a little dull (maybe there's no Ron silliness). Editing is fair and directing from David Yates seems familiar but in HP7 he gave us more surprise. This time the shots and the setting is beautifully done.
Some revision might helps before stepping in the cinema because HP7 part 1 doesn't really show too much of flashback of the previous chapter. Characters from previous chapter share quite a big role here and some just get Charm till death so quick until we wont realize he/she's gone..
Daniel, Emma and Rupert's acting, what can i say.. This 3 kids deserve to get the fame and the spotlight. Besides this 3 obviously is the main character in the film, other supporting actor/actresses also bring the character from the book to film and reality.
Conclusion, if you'd follow HP for the past few year please don't miss the final chapter. It's emotional, it brings memory back. We'd watched Harry from a baby and HP7 is the film which you will see the last battle between Harry and You-Know-Who.
hint: There will be more to watch in HP7 part 2, I swear.
