Definitely everyone would wish for a blissful ending. Of course J.K Rowling did her best to meet our requirement spec. After the book reading and many rounds of Potter discussion, debate with friends, then comes the movie. Oh my god, we expect a lot now. It is really hard task to transform everything on the paper to the screen. May be this is why they have divided the movie into two parts. Definitely this is a good move. But for the moviegoers, they have to wait till next July to know what happens in the climax.
All about HP7 1.0:
Movie started with the Trio- Hermione, Harry and Ron. Hermione's "Obilivate" spell over her parents was a sentimental one. Harry was left alone by Dudleys at 4 Privet drive. They missed out showing Dudley thanking Harry, for saving him from the Dementors. Voldemort and death eaters intro scene was awful. Voldemort delivered a stunning green killing curse from Lucius's wand on the Muggle studies teacher. At the other end, the Order members, Ron, Hermione landed up at Harry's home. The plan of Mad-Eye-Moody in transporting Harry to the Burrows was a real ace. Polyjuice potion transforming Ron, Hermione, Fred, George, Fleur, Mundungus into Harry and transporting them in different directions was a real master plan. I loved they way how Hagrid used his motorbike and dragon fire booster in escorting the real Harry. Few toll while bringing Harry to Burrow are listed: Hedwig and Moody were killed, George's ear was slashed off [George is definitely holy now ;) ]. Then the following day was Bill & Fleur's Wedding and Harry's Birthday. The trio were handed over the items mentioned in the Dumblebore's will by the Minister for Magic. But Gryffindor's sword was claimed to be missing. The wedding celebration was interrupted by Kingsley's message stating the fall of ministry to the hands of dark lord. There was chaos and somehow trio managed to flee to 12 Grimmauld Place after attacking the death eaters. At Black's place they found that the Horcrux locket was replaced by Regulus Arcturus Black (Sirius's brother) with the help of Kreacher. Harry ordered Kreacher to get the original locket. But Kreacher is helpless as the locket was with Dolares Umbridge. Oh.. again it is polyjuice potion hex. Trio transformed as the employees of Ministry for magic and made their way to fetch the locket. Hmm actually this was a funny part in the movie. At the end of this scene, I was able to smell something burning within Hermione due to possessiveness. However it was a hairbreadth escape from the ministry. Ron was jinxed by Yaxley and was cured by Hermione's love added medicine. Here I found the story to be bit humdrum as the trio where just moving from one place to another like tribes. In the meantime Ron was discouraged and left his friends. Miss you Ron :( :( Harry and Hermione trips to Godric's Hallow in search of Gryffindor's sword. There they were attacked by Nagini and they escape by Hermione's blasting charm. But Harry's wand is no more. During the night time Harry was attracted by a Doe shaped patronous charm. It helped him to find the Gryffindor's sword in the frozen lake. The locket started strangling Harry as he was about to reach the sword. Oh god, Dumblebore's deluminator brings Ron back in time. My bravo gets the sword and destroys the horcrux(with great love & trust). Ron you are soooo romantic now [I loved the "Twilight" scene, melted down]. Now the trio proceeds to Lovegood's home to know about the Deathly Hallow. The animated version of "The tale of the Three Brothers" was a great visual delight. But Xenophillius had no choice other than betraying the trio for the sake of his Luna. Trio managed to escape but not for a longer period. They were taken to the Malfoy Manor by the snatchers. Hermione was tortured by Bellatrix whereas other two were dropped in cellar where Luna, Griphooks and Ollivander were locked. No one would have expected(except book readers) Dobby here. The whole lot of witches, wizards and gobblin were rescued by the (Free elf) Dobby. But unfortunately messiah of the mission was knocked down by Bellatrix :( Poor soul Dobby. My salute of peace to you.
Rest of the saga next July....
