Harry+Potter+and+the+Deathly+Hallows

The last movie I've watched was Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, the first part of the epic and highly expected finale to the best-selling book and film. The film stars Harry Potter and his two best friends, Ron and Hermione, but it's quite different from the others. The action takes place outside of Hogwarts, instead of inside the school: actually, the main topic of the movie is the search for the Horrocruxes (six magic and dark objects who contain part of Voldemort's soul and that Harry has to destroy) and a chance between the three teenagers and Voldemort, who are trying desperatly by several ways to catch them. The film has an open end, which surely leaves you looking forward to watching the last part. In my opinion, this is the second best HP film ever, after the fourth movie: I was very disappointed with the previous two because they weren't quite like the books, and, despite the books were very long, it was perfectly possible to add some important things to the plots. But, since the producers decided to make two films instead of one, the story in this case is very faithful to the book; the plot sticks to the main things, and it doesn´t do radical changes to it, and it means that the movie is about a long, long pursuit of the Horrocrux without almost any success. Many people, after watching the film, can think it´s borig, because there isn´t as much action as in the others: Harry spends all the movie not knowing what to do, and it can make the spectator feel confused; but that's exactly what the story aims to - to get people feel the same things that the main character (curiosity, pressure, anxiety, despair) in order to end the story in the next film closing and giving solutions to all the things it leaves in the air in the rest of the movies of the series.

To sum up, it's a film I recommend to all the fans of the books, but, definitely, if you haven't watched the films before, don't try to watch this without catching up first.
