Book and Movie Review - Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows

Tweet

I finished the book two days ago and as is my habit once I finish the book I watch the movie to see how close they are to each other. Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows is a book 739 pages long. As in all JK Rowling's books, it was quite detailed, full of action on every page, and left me on the edge of my seat to the end. This last book in the series is the final battle of good vs. evil between Harry Potter and Lord Voldemort. In his search for Horcruxes Harry learns that the last Horcrux is inside him, gotten there when Lord Voldemort killed his parents and he became the boy who lived. After having read the book then watching the movie - Part 1 yesterday and Part 2 today, I found the book and movie were very closely related. Details that I didn't understand without reading the book made a lot more sense afterwards. If you have not read either the books or watched the movies, I do recommend the series. The books are much more detailed than the movies in 1-6. However, Book and movie 7 are right on. It was a pleasure to read the books and get all the missing details the movie didn't show. For those of you who think the series is bad for Christians, it's really not. The series is about friendship, loyalty, good vs. evil, bullying and a whole host of other things your children face in school on a daily basis. It's much more than witches and wizards. It attacks good vs. evil on a different level and makes it fun. JK Rowling is an excellent author and deserves all the awards she received for this book and movie series. I give this book and the movie 5 stars as I have given all the books in the series. Thanks for reading.
