MY FAVOURITE SERIES? WELL – THAT’S OBVIOUS! HARRY POTTER! SERIOUSLY, J.K. ROWLING HAS DONE A FABULOUS JOB WITH THIS.     

               

I MEAN A SCHOOL FOR MAGIC AND CREATURES BORN OF FANTASY, EVIL AND GOOD, ADVENTURE, AND ROMANCE… YOU NAME IT, IT’S IN HERE…

WELL, AFTER SEEING THE MOVIE- FIRST DAY SHOW (Obviously) YOU COULD SAY I QUITE WENT CRAZY WITH THE DIRECTION- YOU’RE THINKING IT WASN’T GOOD? WRONG YOU THOUGHT-WRONG! SERIOUSLY THE MOVIE HAD GOT MATTER. LITERALLY, THE BOOK IS A HUGE THING YOU KNOW, 607 PAGES IS NOT WHAT YOU EXACTLY CALL TINY, EVEN IF FANATICS LIKE ME CAN FINISH IT IN A DAY.

THE DEATHLY HALLOWS HAS BEEN DECIEDED TO BE RELEASED IN TWO PARTS- PART 1- 2010, PART 2-2011. HOWEVER MILLIONS OF US FANS WERE CURIOUS, EVEN APPREHENSIVE, HOW WILL THEY SPLIT UP THE HUGE BOOK IN WHICH SUSPENSE, THRILL AND ACTION ARE SO TIGHTLY KNIT, MAKING US EAGER TO KNOW WHAT COMES NEXT. I EVEN REMEMBER ME AND MY FRIEND IMAGINING AND PREDICTING AFTER WHICH CHAPTER THEY MIGHT END PART 1.

               

THE MOVIE OVERALL WAS VERY WELL DIRECTED. IF YOU HAVE TO MAKE  SOMETHING  LOOK MAGICAL, IT IS HIGHLY ESSENTIAL TO BE CAREFUL WITH GRAPHICS. SOMETIMES, WHEN IT IS A NIGHT SHOOTING, IT IS SEEN THAT THE LIGHT IS IMPROPERLY HANDLED AND THE CHARACTERS ARE NOT VISIBLE… ALSO, SOMETIMES EXCESS OF LIGHT IN THE SHOOTINGS IS SEEN. THE SCREENPLAY DIRECTION COMES IN HERE, AND RAPIDSHARE HOTFILE HAS DONE A GREAT JOB. ALSO, THE EMOTIONAL SCENES WERE WONDERFUL. WHEN DOBBY THE ELF DIES; AFTER SAVING HARRY POTTER’S LIFE FROM THE MALFOY MANOR, I LITERALLY CRIED IN THE THEATRE. I ALSO FEEL THAT THE TALE OF THE THREE BROTHERS WAS EXPRESSED IN A FABULOUS MANNER USING SHADOW PLAY.

     THE CHOICE OF SETTINGS AND ENHANCED IDEAS FOR THE MOVIE WERE REALLY NICE AND I LIKE THE DIRECTION BIT WHEN IT WAS THE GODRIC HOLLOW SCENE. NAGINI IS QUITE SCARY IN THE BOOK ITSELF, YOU KNOW, I CAN SEE  THE MOVIE WHILE I READ THE BOOK, I THINK THE SCENE WAS FABULOUS. NOT A SINGLE BIT WAS DRAGGING OR BORING, AND IT HAD ALREADY GOT $205 BILLION ON DAY 1! I GUESS THOSE WHO HAVE NOT SEEN IT YET ARE WASTING THEIR TIME SITTING AT HOME- HURRY BEFORE IT’S TOO LATE! IT’S NOT THE SAME WAITING FOR IT TO COME ON TO TV AND WATCHING IT IN A THEATRE!
