Finally, I have seen Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Pt. 1, and to sum it all up: it was great! The movie actually followed the book quite closely- minus a few details such as disguising Harry at the Weasley wedding… and introducing Dobby a little early. The special effects were amazing as well.
The film starts at Privet Dr. where Harry must travel to the Weasleys. However, since he is still underage, he must do it under the protection of the Order. From the first minute of the film, the pace hastens quicker and quicker. There is no slow parts of the film. From George (or Fred- I can never remember) getting his ear blown off to Hedwig dying, you'll be on the edge of your seats. And as Voldemort blows open Dumbledore's grave only to steal the Elder Wand, the movie ends. A huge cliffhanger, but at least you know the end is coming.
This movie had a little bit more magic… but a lot less Hogwarts. If you have read the book, then you realize that the majority of the book is the trio looking for Voldemort's horcruxes (outside of Hogwarts).
So, if you haven't seen it: GO SEE IT. You will not be disappointed.
