I would have given it an "excellant" except for the editing. This time I felt that the movie was too short and a bit confusing. More development was needed regarding the different relationships that are blooming between the characters. The confusion between the two girls attracted to Ron took a second viewing to understand that the second girl was really trying slip a love potion to Harry, not Ron. But the second girl's character was merely suggested not actually acknowledged in the script. She was visible but not included. I suspect that more of her scenes were edited out. Many of the scenes throughout the movie seemed abbreviated. Ron's part, in general, was superficial. His only exceptional scene was his victorious keeper performance in the Quiditch game. Even his scene as an accidental poisoning victim was awkward and could have been handled differently. However, it made a reason for Hermoine to finally be acknowledged as Ron's serious love interest - even though he didn't remember a thing about it. The whole movie is simply a device to end Dumbledore's life. Evidently he is a stumbling block to Harry's conquest of Voldemort. Professor Snape appears to be a traitor but in one quick scene between he and Dumbledore, it is shown that he is only acting upon Dumbledore's orders, even to the assassination of the headmaster. Ginay's importance to Harry and his success is firmly established and Hermoine's true feelings about Ron are now out in the open. I kept wishing for more development in the plot regarding the chamber where Dumbledore takes Harry and, subsequently has Harry force him to drink the potion covering the locket in the basin of the crystal ship. It becomes obvious that the potion is to render Dumbldore incapable of fighting back against any attempt against his life. But who are all the skeletons who come crawling up the crystal ship and almost capsize them in the middle of the pool? Why bother with all this falderal if Dumbledore is already scheduled to die and prepped for it with the drinking of the potion? All this supposed searching for the other 7 pieces of Voldemort's soul due to the Horcrux spell are kept on the back burner and I would suppose will be the driving force for the next two-parts of the Deathly Hallows. I would have liked a bit more explanation of how crucial these items hiding Voldemort's soul really are and how the pieces of soul were split and hidden within the items. The diary and a ring are the only true items acknowledged during this movie. That means there are 5 more items for Harry, Ron and Hermoine to find. By the way, what happened to Hagred after Bella, and the other henchmen who backed Snapes' play, torched his house? Is he now also deceased? Does he follow his friend the spider to the otherside? There were too many dead ends to suit me. But it is the next in the collection and I have them all and it was still entertaining. And as for the initials R.A.B. at the end of the note in the crystal locket, would these be the initials of Sirius's older brother who was only mentioned once, during Slughorn's dialogue with Harry as he shows him his photo collection? Maybe we are supposed to be confused and maybe the Deathly Hallows will answer all these questions.Read full review
good Harry Potter movie,but not the best of the group. Very little humor , rather dark in tone. Still, entertaining if you're into the series and just want to see where the story is going.
