Perhaps for fans who started from reading novels, time has been waiting too long, even though readers are already familiar with what is going to happen in it.
However, I am still looking forward to the moment of returning my imagination to visual reality.
Overall, the new episode is satisfactory.
Very exciting special effects, which can make people touch the reality of the magical world;
the creation of some horror atmospheres does have an immersive feeling; the
whole storyline is actually quite complicated, very depressing, with many psychological descriptions, and a lot of darkness part.
Thanks to the director for his methodical presentation of the content, so that the structure of the whole story looks clearer without losing coherence.
But it seems that most of the unpleasant processes that have nothing to do with the overall situation have been appropriately omitted, and even the connection rounds appear to be very positive, which is probably what all Harry Potter fans are looking forward to.
Regarding some details:
I really like the scene where Dumbledore suddenly disappears into the fire phoenix, it is very magical.
The way Ron's twin brothers left school seemed not exciting enough, and they didn't clearly explain where they were in the joke shop, but I love their gizmos very much. Those children who are used as guinea pigs for preliminary experiments are really pitiful~
DA's activities should be the most enjoyable. The part where the door turned into a mouse hole was pretty funny, and it was really unhappy when Umbridge broke the brick wall. With the smashing of the wall, DA has since been in a state of almost disbanding, although all the characters and all audience readers miss that pleasant experience. This passage also reminds me of the days when I ran a magazine and a TV station in college. Working hard with like-minded partners when you are young is a wonderful time worth remembering for a lifetime.
Harry himself seems to have a lot of psychological struggles in this episode, including his incomprehension of Dumbledore, his strong resistance to everything he hates (such as Snape), his feelings for Sirius and later remorse. After all, the length of the movie is limited, otherwise every detail can be further investigated.
The pursuit of details in this film is also touching. For example, Ginny seems to be a character without dialogue in this episode, but her understanding of magic and her strong personality seem to have been demonstrated by her outstanding performance. After all, in the next part 6, she is an important person. If you observe carefully, you will find that Ginny looks a lot like Harry's mother, which should be a hint, ha ha.
Another highlight is Harry's memories of the past while practicing Occlumency. The editing of several previous movies has been added. When he was a child, Harry was really cute, but like many child stars, he couldn't continue to grow in height. By the way, Harry and his father were poured out of the same mold.
For the two newly added characters:
Umbridge’s role modeling was very successful, the pink color and artificial laughter are indeed impressive. As a satirical character, but also as an entertainer, he won the most indispensable role award in this episode. She herself represents an extreme member of the Ministry of Magic, and her ending also means that it seems that telling the truth is the real courage and solution.
Although Luna is a nervous guy, I really like her appearance. Without Hermione's seriousness, she seemed to be able to reduce complexity to simplicity and seriousness to ease. It was such a person who had nothing to do with Harry, but helped Harry figure out a lot of truth. Attitude is very important for people to live, and everything must look forward. At the end, Luna found the missing shoe. "What you lose will always come back at some time." I don't remember if it ever appeared in the book, but I really love this sentence.
Well, this is a good movie.
I am already looking forward to its next movie, and the final ending of the day will be announced at the end of the month.
