[spoiler] The Harry Potter Franchise has been strong. A true saga written from the imaginative mind of J.K. Rowling spawning the success of several movies to take on the adaptation of the books.
There's plenty of magic and pop-culture magnetism, where an audience feels attached to Harry James Potter, Ronald Wesley, and Hermione Granger.
The two ending movies has plenty of pressure from movie goers to be epic, grand, and overall satisfying with magical expectations that no wizard can ever conjurer. It is one with incantations of long Latin based words, sighted with wand in hand.
As with any Harry Potter movie, the atmosphere of these last two movies hasn't lost any splendor of the Potter universe, even with the grim and serious tone that of the Deathly Hallows.
The tale of three brothers who sought a means of cheating death, with a delightful ability of creating a bridge, with their imagination to cross the other side, with weaving vine, root, and branching out, hath Death scoff to foil with cunning wit.
"Death be not proud, for some call me mighty and dreadful, art no so."
Death granted the three brothers the gift of riches and choice. One brother sought a powerful deadly wand that is lusted, feared, eventually taken by foe, after the brother murdered, and boasted of how invincible he was. The first brother died as he feel asleep, slain by another. The second brother wanted the gift of necro-observation-- the glancing of loved ones that have past to the neatherealm. Death gave this man the gift of an illusive experience of communicating with the dead through imagination, that the second brother drove himself mad. The final brother sought none of the folly of man. Only the cloak of death himself, to be invisible from death until a lifespan was fullfilled should he give his cloak to his own flesh and blood, and accept gladly his mortal fate the journey with death.
The order of the Phoenix--- the very symbol of an Egyptian bird, is one that dies and blazes away into a perpetual cycle of rebirth only to die and so forth--a path way against the Dark Lord, whence Voldemort and Harry are themselves the Horicrux and not objects alone are to be only considered as such.
Harry doesn't realize it yet, but to kill Voldemort, he must first die himself. It was the love of Harry's mom, that prevented the fatality of Harry, with the sacrifice of parental catering against the darklord, with their effort of protecting their only son. The theme is sacrifice. Power and magic isn't enough. But it is the very nature of sacrifice that is the ending result which is how Dolby met his death with his loving protection whilst saving Harry, Luna, Ron, and Hermione
The movie isn't about special effects. The direction is solidified with great carefulness where Voldemort grasp Professor Dumbledore's wand. A wand so powerful that even Voldemort hasn't a clue of it's potential as he laughs holding the essence of its power in a dark cold night, at the small island of the late Dumbledore.
If not a ether-realm of two universes where magic and reality clash. Where the ministry of magic, at odds with the normality of the muggles- the half breed of wizard and human, against the prejudice of the true-blood, bias of a full wizard of rite.
The locations are dramatic, gleaming the valleys of several highlands, to the icy forest covered with snow. It is nothing more than breathtaking, and it is the prelude to a movement that will intensify with some huge climax.
The movie leaves you wanting more--- making you feel like your interruption from actual reality unfair. This is a good thing. This is truly what I want before the finale.
To resolve the inevitable is to except complete self-destruction and sacrifice.
The actors Daniel, Emma, and Rupert should hail this project as the beginning of their careers by its seriousness.
My opinion of their acting ****is that they really give you that illusion that they are the characters and that they believe in their character. It translates with their puberty and coming of age as they are now adults. The dialog is believable. The music is a fulfillment of the tension and nature of the characters during scenario and location. There is balance. It is like no scale I've seen where a paperweight or feather easily out do each other due to the mass by its pound, ounce, or matter.
It is balance with adult complexity where Harry struggles to find himself has he reminisces about his part experiences.
For the first time, Harry has to make adult decisions with out the guidance of his elders. He finally is truly a wizard, even without his original wand.
Perhaps this story is more about excepting the tact of adapting to a difficult decision as it's theme. The crafting of a man and the understanding behind the things taught at Hogwarts.
The finale is coming soon. 2011 is almost here. July assumed. Probably pushed back to another date. To be announced..
