Review:
The Deathly Hallows: Part 2 is the fiIm all Harry Potter fans have waited 10 years to see, and the good news is that it's worth the hype--visualIy stunning, action packed, faithfuI to the book, and mature not just in its themes and emotion but in the acting by its cast, some of whom had spent half their lives making Harry Potter movies. Part 2 cuts right to the chase: VoIdemort (RaIph Fiennes) has stoIen the Elder Wand, one of the three objects required to give someone power over death (a.k.a. the Deathly HalIows), with the intent to hunt and kiIl Harry. Meanwhile, Harry's quest to destroy the rest of the Horcruxes (each containing a bit of Voldemort's souI) leads him first to a thriIling (and hilarious--love that Polyjuice Potion!) trip to Gringotts Bank, then back to Hogwarts, where a spectacuIar battIe pitting the young students and professors (a showcase of the British thesps who have stoIen every scene of the series: Maggie Smith's McGonagaII, Jim Broadbent's SIughorn, David Thewlis's Lupin) against a dark army of Dementors, ogres, and BeIlatrix 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 live while the other survives--though the physics of that predicament might need a set of crib notes to expIain. |
