Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows (Part 1) - REVIEW *SPOILERS*



I was going to do this chronologically, but then I kept thinking of new things.
I saw the midnight premiere! :)


My favourite things:
-Harry, Ron, Hermione: Opening sequence
-Hermione's pictures, the fading of her out of them :(:(:(
-7 Potters was done AMAZINGLY, and Mady-Eye' comment was hilarious xD
-I loved how Hermione's bag was done!
-Ron's character development was great, it really showed his increasing anger and frustration
-Harry & Hermione dancing was great cuz it definitely not romantic, but it cheered them up. And some of my friends didn't like how they got sad at the end, but I think it was important to show they can't forget about everything else.
-Bathilda Bagshot: At first, I was like WTF SHE IS SO NOT SUPPOSED TO BE THAT CREEPY! But halfway through that though, I remembered what was going to happen. And then I was just scared.
-I wish I could tell whoever thought to put the character's voices over the Polyjuice Poster that they are amazing. So smart.
-The Three Brothers story reminded me of a Tim Burton film. I'm planning to fall asleep to that every night once I get it on DVD
-Mudblood being carved into Hermione's arm... Hermione's screams throughout that scene affected it so much. Ron being frantic, Harry disturbed, and Dobby appearing was the perfect relief.
-Dobby's entrance with Kreacher and Mundungus was AWESOME!! The whole audience cheered, and it made me smile :) Then he said something funny
-All of Dobby's lines. Like omg. There was "Not KILL, simply maim or injure." and a bunch of other funny ones, then...
-His thing as he was dying. Oh god I was bawling my eyes out. “Such a beautiful place. Such a beautiful place to be with friends. Friends, Harry Potter.”
-The Horcrux Hermione and Harry were great in my opinion. A lot of people were like "It was so fake!" and stuff, but I thought the passion was there, and I liked how they looked like photoshopped perfect versions of themselves.
-Neville: "Hey Losers, he's not here." No further explanation needed xD
-Ron getting splinched. AHHHHH!! Hermione was SO SAD! Emma played that sososososoooo genuinely. Like GAH.
-Everything else (: <3

Complaints:
-They cut out the scene where Dudley said "I don't think you're a waste of space, Harry." I mean, I know the montage replaced it but STILLL.
-The Wedding. I just didn't think it was done very well. And there was no planning at The Burro before it either.
-Ginny & Harry's kiss. They're just awkward. I like them in the books, but not the movies.
-I didn't really like the Diner scene either. Except the part where the waitress didn't even notice cuz of her iPod xD
-WHY HASN'T HARRY USED HIS INVISIBILITY CLOAK YET?!
-They should NOT have messed with this quote. -.-
Book version:
Ron: "He - well, he must've known I'd run out on you."
Harry: "No. He must've known you'd always want to come back."
Movie Version:
Ron: "I guess Dumbledore always knew I'd want to com back."
-There was no Erumpent Horn in Xenophilius's house
-Hedwig's death was kinda cheesy and fake-looking. And Harry wasn't upset enough.
-They went straight to the Burrow instead of going to safe-houses and meeting back at the Burrow.
-Harry didn't find Lily's letter
