Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Review




I've just seen the movie a few hours ago and I have to admit, it was kind of disappointing.

The film was super compressed that it's like seeing a movie full of gaps between them. If one hasn't read the book or forgot the story, he/she wouldn't quite get a grasp on what's going on. You have to read the book first or read it again to understand the movie. There were so many changes, so many were extracted that you have no idea what's happening. You're always gonna ask "How did that happen?"


I knew I couldn't expect much from David Yates. He failed to amuse me with the Order of the Phoenix & the Half-Blood Prince, and now the Deathly Hallows. His treatment with the film is that it was too melancholic. For me, there wasn't too much excitement. The scoring was too quiet, if not none at all. The frames were it all fades to black happened twice or three times, it was almost like watching a TV show where a subtitle could appear and say "To be continued."

It's so sad that the film didn't do justice to the book, but of course, we are talking about David Yates here so no surprise there. As you all know, I am an HP fanatic and I would never bring down HP. This review is just my opinion.

Let's just hope that the last part, showing on July 2011, would be a hell lot better, if not, best. *crosses fingers*

Rating for this movie: 3/5
