If your a fan of a book, these movies are almost impossible to evaluate independently, the opinions and narratives coagulate to form a haphazard opinion. I like this film as a continuation of the previous films, it has some clear issues if evaluated independently, but viewed as the build up to the final instalment it is completely acceptable. The acting from the main players continues to improve, and the supporting cast is superb. If you've seen the others, your probably seeing this anyways.
All in all a worthy addition. However, it was a poor choice to allow the teenage romance to be the story's driving force. Harry/Ginny & Ron/Hermione should have been a cute subplot (a "Will they, won't they" scenario) as they slowly discovered feelings for each other while they investigated the dark occurences at play. Instead, we were slapped in the face at the start of the movie with the fact that they all obviously liked each other. The events of the film then were largely very predictable.
These movies are for losers. The plot is pretty good but the acting and the way the plot unfolds is utterly horrible. Dull and boring unless you read all the books and/or are a complete nerd.
Contains writing that is reminiscent of a fanfiction. Which makes it stupid, dull, and filled with forced romance throughout. Ron saying Hermoine's name in his sleep was nauseatingly forced, cheesy, and beyond stupid.
Beautifully shot and the acting is good, but I felt as if you have not read the Harry Potter novels that you would be a bit lost watching this film. Had a good time with the film, but it is not my favorite Potter film.
These are dark days at Hogwarts. The brilliance in the novels, and therefore the films, was that as Harry (and readers) matured, so did the story. Rowling never held back when she wanted to get darker, and neither does Yates. But wait, there's more! For the first time, Radcliffe has no false notes in his performance. Even better is Gambon has finally won me over with his Dumbledore. Along with Broadbent and Rickman, who reminds us why there is no other who could play Snape, it's amazing. Wow.
It is impossible to see this movie as something more than just an episode of great series... In which actually nothing happens. If you don't care about these characters - forget it. You'll miss however the best looking Harry Potter movie to date. I hope they'll bring Bruno Delbonel back for the final 2 chapters.
Every scene doesn't follow the previous one effectively, a lack of balance harms the film and the 2nd part (featuring the romantic bits) was too silly for my taste. The story left me fairly indifferent aswell. I always liked the look of those films, the camera work and how every actor breathes life into their character. Alan Rickman may be the most charismatic actor at the moment. I hope the last films will be worth the wait.
Dark, humourous and overall an entertaining movie. It's a shame that this film was darting around from plot to plot like a caffeinated hummingbird tending to several flowers though. I haven't really read the book, so I don't have a firm grasp of the main plot, but it seemed that the film focused heavily on love and relationships, which was rather annoying, but the character development between the main characters was good, but they sadly didn't have the acting talent to sustain the performance.
My new favorite of the movies. I was worried that with a PG rating, it wouldn't deliver, but i walked out very very satisfied. It's a funny, charming, yet dark trip around the wizarding world with an ending that made me start counting down the days until the first deathly hallows movie.
