"Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Pt 2"

Some spoilers from the movie, if you don't want to know don't read this entry. You've been warned. Last night I went to the midnight showing of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Pt 2 with Kimberly, her friends and her brothers. I got to the theater around 6:30 p.m and saw that the group was near the front of the line and came to find out that someone had been since 8 in the morning. I thought that was really cool :) We spent the rest of the night talking and playing games and I really enjoyed getting to know all of Kimberly's friends. It felt like time was moving by so slowly, but at 11:10 they started letting us in and we were able to get some great seats. Finally, the movie started and it was so awesome. The movie had a perfect mixture of humor, suspense, and action. Throughout the whole movie was a build up of tension to the scene I had been waiting for: the final battle between Harry and Voldemort. I had so many favorite scenes in this movie. When Harry, Hermione, and Ron escape from the bank flying on a dragon. Finally Ron and Hermione kiss it was so cute, it was one of the scenes that I had been waiting for. I was looking forward to the scene with Snape when he tells Harry that he has been in love with Harry's mother this whole time and and that he was protecting Harry. It was this scene that Harry learned that he had to die in order to defeat Voldemort. I cried when Harry went off into the forest to die. But as we all know he didn't; he had to 'die' to kill the part of Voldemort's soul that lived inside him. The final battle at Hogwarts was just amazing and nothing was held back; I must admit that I was sad to see most of my favorite characters die. The final standoff between Harry and Voldemort, which led to Voldemort's demise was amazing. The performances from the cast were the best I had ever seen. The main three Dan, Rupert, and Emma gave amazing performances. Along with Maggie Smith (McGanagall), Alan Rickman (Snape), Matt Lewis (Neville) I can go on and on. Everyone was so awesome in this movie. I am sad that the Harry Potter movies are over, I have really enjoyed watching them. Harry Potter is a book series worth introducing to my children and I hope they love the books as much as I did.
