Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part I

On November 19th everybody grabbed their wands and their cloaks as the most awaited movie hit theaters: Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part I. At midnight, fans lined theater halls filled with anticipation and excitement for the debut of this wizarding movie. When everybody took their seats, and the lights dimmed, a silence fell upon the crowd as the movie untwined.

To the book lovers out there, this movie stayed true to the novel. The characters, plot line, and dialogue almost always lined up, unlike many of the other Harry Potter movies from the past. Little parts were added along, but the main basis of the book was always there, and the small parts that were changed were not disappointing, or even apparent except for the die-hard fans out there.

Sarah L., who attended the midnight premier of the movie, said, “It was really exciting to see the movie. It was so similar to the books and was definitely the best Harry Potter movie made so far.”

In addition, the comedy throughout the movie had many people laughing out loud. The jokes added by the comedic characters Fred and George added a lightheartedness to the otherwise darker movie. There was a great mix of happy and dark stages, making the movie an all-around experience, by not letting you know what was going to happen next. The emotion that all of the actors showed not only helped the movie, but made it as good as it was.

However, at times the plot line did move a little slow. There was never a part where the movie was truly boring, but sometimes it just needed to quicken the pace. This was to be expected though, considering how long the books are, and the producer’s need to stay as accurate to the book as possible.

As the movie ended on a cliff-hanger, and everybody stood up, leftover popcorn and candy littering the floor, a sense of questioning filled the crowd. What was going to happen next? How was it going to end? When does the next movie come out?

All in all, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part I was a success, and the excitement for Part II, debuting on July 15th, not to mention the ending of the series, is escalating every day.
