Part I - my favourite scenes

  • Ginny and Harry's breakfast kiss
    • George's 'holey' humour
  • Harry waking up to Ron and Hermione's sleeping hands nearly touching each other at Grimmauld Place
  • Hermione teaching Ron how to play Beethoven's Fur Elise
  • Kreacher apparating back to Grimmauld Place with the captured Mundungus, as well with Dobby
  • Ministry scene
  • When Harry goes, You're brilliant, Hermione. Truly.
    • Then Hermione replies, Actually, I’m just highly logical which allows me to look past extraneous detail and perceive clearly that which others overlook.
  • Ron's departure
  • Harry and Hermione dancing
  • Harry and Hermione at the graveyard in Godric's Hollow
  • Ron's rescue of Harry in the pond at the Forest of Dean
  • destruction of the locket imposed by Ron
  • Ron's explanation of how he came back
  • Engorgio. REDUCIO!
  • Hermione's reading of The Tale of the Three Brothers at the Lovegood residence
  • every single scene with Dobby as the main subject, or at least with dialogue
  • Dobby's death

I am still in a daze. You cannot comprehend how much Harry Potter has changed my life, and how dear I hold it to my heart. The seventh book, the conclusion, was perfect; so seeing it on the silver screen was just taking it up to a higher level. The movie wasn't perfect, but the scenes that I mentioned above justified all the sordid and iffy bits. I rate it 15/10, because it's so personal. Overall, it's a very beautiful, dark, mature film. I really love how the mood and atmosphere of the movie transformed into, in a sense, a more experienced and grownup setting compared to the first film. I cried.

Scenes I really wanted to see that was not included in the film:

  • Harry rummaging through Sirius's room dec'd out in fading Gryffindor colours
    • finding his mum's letter to Padfoot
    • finding the baby photo of him zooming around on his mini broomstick
    • finding the picture on the wall of his dad and his friends when they attended Hogwarts
  • Harry, Ron, and Hermione freeing the imprisoned muggles and half-bloods from the Ministry of Magic
