AH. It's hard to imagine that one day, eventually, when mentioned the name Harry Potter, a teenager would say "what? Who's Harry Potter?" Not only the teens today, but also adults, elders--we all grew up, or old, with Harry Potter.
I went to watch the movie with high expectations, mainly originated from online reviews. Considering the reviews for past several movies of this series haven't been all that great, HP6's seem to be quite good. I, however, wasn't really satisfied. "The ending was brilliant!" Someone says in his review. I thought the ending was too flat. Although I don't remember exactly the ending in the book, I still remember that gloomy, yet epic-like feeling. The movie ending feels abrupt, and shallow. I don't think enough emotion/scene is given to Dumbledore's death, nor does Harry involve in enough fighting at the end. It just...ended.
But this movie made me want to actually finish that gigantic last book of Harry Potter sitting in my brother's room. Yeah, it needs a closure. One more to the summer reading list:
Dorian Grey
Dr. Jekyll
Metamorphosis
Cuckoo's Nest
Double Helix
Predictably Irrational
Colossus
HARRY POTTER 7
and numerous other technical books. FML.
