Harry Potter has been a tremendous film series spanning a decade, and it seems like we have grown up along with the characters in these films. They all do a fantastic job, especially the big three who have learned so much over time. But how could they not sharing the screen with the likes of Richard Harris, Alan Rickman, Maggie Smith, Emma Thompson, Gary Oldman etc.
The series, for the most part, has stayed true to the books. Obviously things had to be cut out because there was no way possible they can fit every little detail of the books into the movie. However, in part 1 I was upset with leaving out Kreacher's Tale, and now in the 2nd movie the whole ending sequence left me baffled, as to why they changed it. In the book we had Grawp and house elves attacking, but there was really none of that, and Neville kills the snake right away, not when it's about to kill Ron and Hermione. But my favorite part of that last battle was Molly's duel with Bellatrix, but that scene left a lot to be desired, as there was really no build up, but at least Molly got to say her line. Ugh. All in all, it was still a very good movie, but in the end this battle sequence left a lot to be desired.
The Prince's Tale though was about as great as I was hoping for along with the Resurrection Stone scene, as both of those parts were full of emotion, mostly due to Alan Rickman's acting. He has always done the best in these movies.
The books were better of course, but the movies were entertaining to watch, and I guess I probably couldn't imagine a much better series, but I would have liked to see them a little closer to the books.
