Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2 A Review
Yesterday we took Caroline to see HPATDH2. We made the conscious choice to see it in 2-D since the previous two films had been so dark not just in tone but also in pallet. There were some sequences that would look cool in 3-D but nothing that screamed must be seen in 3-D for full experience.
Spoilers are going behind the cut and very well may be in comments so you have been warned.
When we last left our heroes, they were in serious trouble. This film picks up pretty much where we left everyone and goes from there. I am glad that we recently re-watched the first part of the Deathly Hallows before seeing the second because it refreshed my memory a bit that made the ending make a little more sense.
Overall the acting is as good if not better. The onus is on Mr. Radcliff, Mr. Grint, and Ms. Watson for the piece but the adults play a role as well. It was nice to see the adults back in the picture since the previous film was pretty much the three all on their own trying to save the world. Easier with friends I think.
The look was good. The battles were magically magnificent. People died and people lived. It was pretty much the books come to life which has been the nice thing about the whole movie series. They made the books come to life which can be difficult.
So overall I was quite satisfied with the movie but don’t think it is worth 3-D.
I am grateful that these films got made.
