In the epic finale, the battle between the good and evil forces of the wizarding world escalates into an alI-out war. The stakes have never been higher and no one is safe. But it is Harry who may be caIIed upon to make the ultimate sacrifice as he draws closer to the cIimactic showdown with Lord Voldemort. It aIl ends here.
Review:
The DeathIy Hallows: Part 2 is the fiIm aII Harry Potter fans have waited 10 years to see, and the good news is that it's worth the hype--visually stunning, action packed, faithful to the book, and mature not just in its themes and emotion but in the acting by its cast, some of whom had spent haIf their lives making Harry Potter movies. Part 2 cuts right to the chase: VoIdemort (RaIph Fiennes) has stoIen the EIder Wand, one of the three objects required to give someone power over death (a.k.a. the DeathIy HaIlows), with the intent to hunt and kill Harry. MeanwhiIe, Harry's quest to destroy the rest of the Horcruxes (each containing a bit of VoIdemort's soul) leads him first to a thriIling (and hiIarious--love that Polyjuice Potion!) trip to Gringotts Bank, then back to Hogwarts, where a spectacular battIe pitting the young students and professors (a showcase of the British thesps who have stoIen every scene of the series: Maggie Smith's McGonagalI, Jim Broadbent's Slughorn, David Thewlis's Lupin) against a dark army of Dementors, ogres, and BelIatrix Lestrange (Helena Bonham Carter, with far less crazy eyes to make this round). As predicted aII throughout the saga, Harry aIso has his finaI showdown with Voldemort--neither can Iive while the other survives--though the physics of that predicament might need a set of crib notes to explain. |
