HARRY POTTER AND THE DEATHLY HALLOWS PART 1

This movie omitted lots of details from the book itself. For instance, we are not shown how sad Harry Potter’s  uncle, aunt and cousin were when they said goodbye to him for good. We all know how mean they were to him when he was growing up but as they parted ways, we will learn that they did love him like their own after all despite them hating wizards and witches. On eighteenth birthday Harry no longer needs a guardian to take care of him and his foster family now has to gone to a temporary place to hide just in case the bad wizards kill them. In the movie, you’ll see Hermonine casting a spell on her parents to remove their memories of her. People who didn’t read the book wouldn’t know why. She had to do it to protect her parents from the bad wizards too. Overall the movie was still very long but interesting. Perhaps that is why they had to break up the movie into 2 parts. Between the book and the movie, I’d say that the book is still better. I would give this movie a 3 out of 5.
