The build up for the insane magic battle, the most complex in the franchise and yet mesmerizing

Rating: Null/10 (21 July 2011)

Part 1 of "Deathly Hallows" is basically a build up for the final insane magical battle in part 2. I don't know if this is because it's close to this franchise ending, but I found the build up in this to be exciting and also entertaining. The cinematography and acting is the best by far in this series. Even if this is a build up for part 2 it still has a lot of action in it, so part 2 is gonna be action packed with magic. This is the most mature Harry Potter movie and has a lot of dark tone to it for the better. Overall it's a well directed movie that got my attention almost all the way through, the set pieces, the direction and everything else was just mesmerizing. This is a engaging build up that is worth seeing even if your not really a fan of the Harry Potter books. I suggest watching the previous 6 movies although some maybe painful to sit through for some. But it just might be worth it to know what is going on for the final installment.
7.9/10
