The problem with film adaptations of books is that most of the time, they are not judged as movies but instead as how closely they relate to the original story. When I first saw this movie, I will say that I was dismayed with the portrayal of some of the deaths in the movie, along with the entire Albus/Aberforth story line. I have since accepted, however, that those were not critical to the main messages of the book, and SOMETHING had to be cut out if they wanted a coherent movie that wasn't 10 hours long.
So, instead of spending my time saying that the directors should've included this and that from the book, I will instead look at it as its own separate entity.
This movie is truly a masterpiece - the tone of the movie is excellent, the acting is phenomenal (especially if you compare it to the first Harry Potter movie), and the visuals are stunning. This movie will forever be one of my favorites because it can make you laugh, and cry, and feel the full weight of the era of Harry Potter ending. I truly believe these movies will live on forever, and I will certainly show my kids and their kids the wonderful world of Harry Potter.
