Reviews
The Times - The final instalment, DEATHLY HALLOWS PART 2, is a bravura duel between good and evil. It's also a cathartic, occasionally clunky nostalgia fest., Empire Magazine - A worthy farewell that packs in as much action as its seven predecessors combined and manages not to stint on the emotional beats. Harry Potter leaves us as a quiet, bespectacled, corduroy-wearing hero for the ages., San Francisco Chronicle - The epic and impassioned close that the saga deserves, a sweeping Wagnerian finish that's taut with suspense and wet with emotion., Daily Telegraph - Watched as a stand-alone film it's likely to strike newcomers as completely mystifying, but committed and even semi-committed fans will surely welcome it as a worthy climax to the most successful film franchise in history., Time Out London - While it's unfolding, this is just terrific fun: eye-scorching, ear-battering, heart-pounding cinema of pure spectacle., The Globe and Mail (Toronto) - This outing not only doesn't disappoint; it surpasses high expectations. This is a terrific, smartly designed adolescent adventure, visually rich, narratively satisfying, and bound to resonate for years to come., Film 4 - It may not contain many of the series' most comic, surprising or quotable moments, but it does succeed in bidding adieu in fine fashion to some of this century's most popular fictional characters., Guardian UK - This is such an entertaining, beguiling, charming and exciting picture. It reminded me of the thrill I felt on seeing the very first one, 10 years ago., New Orleans Times-Picayune - A dazzling, stirring capper to a once-in-a-generation movie franchise.
