review Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Part 1

 

Review Harry Potter Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Part 1 (Three-Disc Blu-ray / DVD Combo + Digital Copy) and also the Deathly Hallows, half 1 i'm therefore very happy that I will recommend this one without any hesitation at all!

The last couple Harry Potter films disappointed me in a myriad of ways. My disappointment did not cause me to hate them, however I did feel disenchanted and that i have to admit that I found Harry Potter and also the Half-Blood Prince pretty forgettable. But, being a Potter fan, I still found myself speeding out to check Harry Potter and also the Deathly Hallows, half I today. And to my nice relief and happiness, I loved it - really loved it! Yeah!

The chase of the Seven Potters by the Death Eaters and also the trip to the Ministry of Magic are tense and exciting, the endless camping trip is simply as effective at portraying the helplessness and frustration the characters are experiencing as it was in the book and also the scene that offers us Hermione reading Beedle the Bard's "Tale of the 3 Brothers" is riveting and wonderfully artistic - abundant, much better than i might have thought it may well be. we tend to finally get to meet Bill (and Fleur's briefly-glimpsed wedding dress is gorgeous!) and also the whipped cream on top of all this goodness is that the film is far additional humorous than I expected. while not everything is included, of course, I did not embark of this film grumbling things along the lines of "How could they jump over _____?" or "Why did they add ________when it wasn't even in the danged book?" - each comments I have been known to make once viewing a number of the other films. Instead, I left the theater feeling like i would seen a comparatively faithful rendering of the "real" story. And there have been even one or 2 things that i assumed the film did higher than the book, most notably the interruption of Harry & Ginny's kiss. The not-in-the-book added scene of Harry and Hermione dancing was each amusing and incredibly poignant - a real highlight of the film for me.

For some reason, the enjoyment this film gave me looked as if it would lift some type of weight off me - which seems a awfully odd issue to say, I know. i believe it came an honest deal of the joy I found in the earlier films - when seeing the characters and also the places come back to life on the screen was therefore magical. (That 1st glimpse of Hogwarts!) in a approach, I feel like i'm back *in* - that i'm {once again|once additional|another time|yet again|all over again} immersed in the film version of the story in a approach that more closely echoes the result the books had on me. while the films, IMHO, will never hope to match the books, Harry Potter and also the Deathly Hallows, Part I, let me feel the magic again. For that I thank everybody involved with it.

I thought the acting by Daniel Radcliffe, Rupert Grint and Emma Watson was higher than it has been in any of the Potter films - they really seem to possess come back into their own here. Helena Bonham Carter was freakishly perfect as usual, Jason Isaacs superb and Rhys Ifans as Xenophilius Lovegood a welcome newcomer. The film sounds sensible - the score is a mood-setting addition to the film (especially effective, I thought, were the screeching radio sounds during many of the camping scenes) - and it's even higher. The shots of the English countryside are stunning however typically seem almost overwhelmingly empty and lonely - perfect for the story.

When it was announced that Deathly Hallows would be split into 2 films, i was glad as a result of I hoped that by doing therefore the filmmakers would be ready to do justice to the complexities of Rowling's plot. And now, having seen half I, I feel that they've succeeded in doing just that. After this, I will expect to the last film, not with dread, however with pleasure. and that i am incredibly thrilled to be ready to say that.

Very highly recommended!
