MOVIE REVUE: Potter’s Deathly Ending Part II

Tonight, the world draws its final curtain for the world of Harry Potter. After a decade of watching the brave young wizards battle evil, love, and Voldemort – the final chapter has come to remind us how this saga by J. K. Rowling has taken the audience on a ride of their lives. For Harry
Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2, it was a touching end to a film series that has changed the way that fantasy films for the young at heart are made. The last chapter had everything you would hope for: a love story, the final battle of good versus evil, and the answer to all the burning questions you had in the last ten years. This series will follow the footsteps as Lord of the Rings, Star Wars, Star Trek, and James Bond. Multi-story movie series that are timeless and touch the movie watcher’s soul. Bring out your tissues for this will be my swan song review to the magical, thrilling world of Harry Potter.

MOVIE REVUE: Potter’s Deathly Ending Part I

 

The HP Trio & the quest for the Horcruxes

There comes a time when we movie lovers cherish the movie sagas that become part of our pop culture. Over the course of a decade, we were drawn in the world of Harry Potter and the wizarding world created by J.K. Rowling. Through six amazing films, we literally watched the young stars of Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson, and Rupert Grint grew up right before our very eyes. As we prepare to say goodbye to the dramatic trio with Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Part I, let us remember that all good things must come to an end. In this case, the end is really this summer 2011 when the second part rolls on the silver screen. The final part in the HP presents a darker tone than the previous film. It touches the surface of more adult themes like growing up, testing one’s faith in a person, death, and most of all, the final battle between good versus evil.

MOVIE REVUE: The End Approaches….

 

 

It’s hard to believe, but nine years ago the first Harry Potter film, The Sorcerer’s Stone, arrived to the big screen. Unlike some folks who grew up reading the books, I was among the other half who had never read the books and was completely new to the Harry Potter phenomenon; therefore at the time of its release, I remember writing it off as just another “kiddie flick”(I was fifteen at the time). However, the following summer, I remember rediscovering it on video one faithful rainy day, after my mom had brought it home. Upon watching the film, I slowly found myself getting engulfed in the story as well as the characters, and as they say, the rest was history….

MOVIE REVUE: Deathly Sorrows

 

 

Will good triumph over evil? Will Harry, the chosen one, succeed in defeating he whose name shall not be spoken? These are just some of the questions this, the first part in the last book of the Harry Potter series that will remain unanswered. Sure, that sounds bleak, but it’s expected and really is not. This is a film that will set up the climactic end of the franchise. It’s about building the story, pushing it further, and leaving you wanting more. And I can’t wait for more.

MOVIE REVUE: Wingardium Leviosa – HP & the Half-Blood Prince Soars to New Heights

It’s so hard to believe that it was only eight years ago that we were introduced to the world of Harry Potter. J. K. Rowling produces a series of books about a young boy who realizes that his destiny was to become a wizard. So, we followed Harry Potter to a school of magic known as Hogwarts. He has finally found a place to find it and expand his horizons. With the help of his best friends, Hermione Granger & Ronald Weasley, Harry has battled Draco Malfoy, dragons, basilisks, and adolescent through five movies to date. Now, Harry and his gang must battle his latest enemy to date.
