1/8/11 15:19I went to see HP 7 with my family yesterday. I've wanted to make a post about it but forgot it. Not a surprise, though, since I wasn't impressed.
The movie was okay, overall. I've never had any feelings about the movies apart from disinterest and mild annoyance when they advertised the movies (but other movies get that annoyance as well). I never liked the actors or the acting (apart from Michael Gambon. He's awesome. And the actress who plays McGonagall) so I was like "Who cares". Besides, my short HP fan phase was already over when the first movie came.
Anyway, back on topic. The movie and action in the movie was mediocre. The duel between McGonagall and Snape was awesome because McGonagall kicked ass. She was awesome throughout the movie. Snape however... oh gawd, it was so horrible. I cringed almost at every scene he was in. And his memory scene... I liked that scene in the book; it was the only scene I re-read because it was cool. But in the movie it was so... horrible. They made Snape look so... pathetic. Not that he hasn't some patheticness in the book, but how they put it into pictures... any other aspects of his personality that were shown in the book just disappeared. Ugh. Ughughugh.
There were a few others scene where I found that the book was much better, but I don't remember them anymore. It was... not very memorable. The epilogue was pretty hilarious though. They didn't really look older; they just looked like teenagers dressing up. Pretty funny.
Helena Ravenclaw reminded me of Arwen.
