Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2

 Okay so I'm possibly the only person in the world who had'nt seen it yet and by the completely empty cinema screening except for me and my friend that seems to be true. I finnally got around to watching it, in 2D of course (I dont do 3D) and was gripped from start to finnish. The story follows on from Part 1 as you would expect with Harry, Hermione and Ron tracking down the last few Horcruxes they need to defeat Voldy. A thrilling sequence in Gringots bank kicks off the film nicely with with the CGI done brilliantly for the dragon that protects the vaults. The three wizards are then brought back to Hogwarts so that they can find another Horcrux, Roweena Ravenclaws diadum but you'll have to ask Luna Lovegood what a diadum is. Then comes the battle that we all came to see. The students and teachers of Hogwarts veruses Voldemorts army of ogres, death eaters and werewolves. The battle contains a superb bridge sequence with Neville Longbottom becoming the action hero. My favourite part of the film has to be when we see that Severus Snape the one we were lead to belive was a villain was a hero all along and it's made all the more heartbreaking by his vicious death at the fangs of Voldemorts snake. As someone who hasnt read the books (chill I'm starting the Philosophers Stone now!) this was all a suprise. Harry must confront Voldemort in the forbidden forest always the setting for the most creepy scenes. Harry is thought to have been killed by Voldemort but Mrs Malfoy's false diagnosis provides Harry with the opportunity to strike. Before that though we have the most awkward and uncomfortable hug between Draco Malfoy and Voldemort, made me laugh. It's the final showdown and it's Harry vs Voldemort, Mrs Weasley vs Bellatrix Lestrange and Neville vs the Snake. Good triumphs over evil of course and we get a glimpse 19  years into the future with Harry and Ginny and Ron and Hermione's kids off for their first year at Hogwarts. It's a fitting end to a brilliant set of films made great by the fab cast and crew. I dont think there will be anything quite this big in cinema for a very long time. 4 1/2 stars.
