A Rewarding Three Disc Package
The movie was an entertaining version of the book and easily held my attention all the way through; while it is somewhat dark and menacing it tells the story of Harry's final battle with Voldemort in an exciting fashion which will be enjoyable to watch repeatedly. The Epilogue, "Nineteen Years Later" is faithfully presented at the end of the movie as it is in the book. Both sound and picture are good and contribute to the telling of the story.I've now watched all three discs and downloaded the movie to my computer and it all worked just fine. The download is a formidable 2 GB's and takes a few minutes on a cable connection but it downloaded and played back.The download instructions tell you that Flixster and Adobe Air must be installed on your computer and automatically starts the process if those two programs aren't already on your computer. I didn't have either of them so I had to download and install them after which I downloaded the movie. The movie is now downloaded to my computer and plays back through the Flixster software; I've played the first few minutes and it seems to be going well.When I first tried the Blu-ray disc my player (OPPO BDP83-SE) froze and wouldn't do anything; I had to cut the power to the player then restarted the player, ejected the disc and then reinserted it at which time it played perfectly. I have no idea why it froze the first time and played perfectly the second time. Since then I've played the DVD version and replayed the Blu-ray version as well as the Special Features disc all with no problem.The movie is based on the book, not a movie version of the book; having said that I think the movie version has merit which can be enjoyed for what it is even though it varies from the book's version of the story. All of the key elements of the book's version are there but just packaged to get there by different routes. In her conversation with Daniel Radcliffe, J.K. Rowling makes some comments on the differences between her book version and the movie version; the movie's version of the story obviously had the author's apporval.The Special Features disc included some excellent resources including a conversation between Daniel Radcliffe and J.K. Rowling. This conversation provides some fascinating background on the writing of the books and the making of the movies. If you have an interest in the franchise this is a conversation you don't want to miss; J.K. Rowing explains a lot of her thinking that was influential in the production of the movie and the writing of the stories.Normally I don't download movies that I have on Blu-ray to my computer; in this case I made an exception because of the various comments from other reviewers. I was really curious how it would work out with Flixster and the downloaded version of the movie. So far so good; I'll set aside some time to watch the entire movie on my computer and if anything noteworthy occurs I'll update this review. One thing I did notice was when I stopped the movie and later went back to it the movie started again at the beginning, not the point where I stopped it.On balance I think the movie is effective, powerful and even has some touching moments; those who appreciate the characters involved in the story will probably find the movie well worth their time.

Bad director butchered a great story
This terrible director, David Yates managed to butcher 2 of the Potter films.... Half blood prince and now the Deathly Hallows part 2. Some of these narcissistic directors think they have to put their own spin on rewriting movies for their own egos... despite the fact that the hundreds of millions of fans already liked the books as they were written and want to see a reasonable facsimile of the book they read... not some unrecognizable derivative by an ego-centric director who only cares about his own self gratification and not the audience.The scenes were almost unrecognizable. The director managed to change the events in nearly every scene. Even the actors did not have their hearts in it. For the first time since the series began, they were simply reading the words of the script without any heart in what they were saying. It was obvious they also knew how the director was making a butchered, empty rewritten version of the final scenes... but their contracts usually prohibit them from making any negative remarks about the film in perpetuity.Harry didn't even take the time to repair his wand before trashing the elder. They did get rid of the mindless rambling dialogue Rowlings had put into the last book. Some of the new dialogue also makes the details for the reason behind things much clearer... which was helpful... without the senseless babbling and with a lot less rambling words than Rowlings and we did not have to endure any of Rowling's sanctimonious speeches by Harry.I barely recognized some of the scenes. Any high school kid could have made this film as Yates directed it. It is entirely the director's fault. All of his future films should be boycotted after this. He does not deserve to make any more films of any kind.Shell cottage scenes were hacked to bits. The only 2 decent scenes in the entire movie were the scenes from Snapes memory which were excellent, albeit missing huge chunks due to the director's efforts to cut them to shreds. The scenes escaping Gringotts and where Voldemort killed every goblin in Gringotts... was the other portion which was among the better scenes. Some of the special effects of the preemptive spells by the teachers at Hogarts were well done by the special effects CGI artisans.On a good note, Harry's role was less self-centered and less petulant than Rowlings wrote him. It was increasingly obvious in her last 4 books that she was growing tired of the forced deadlines due to the actors age constraints as she wrote the books. She was trying to turn the readers against him as she finished the series in the hope the demand for him would cease. She really wanted to kill him off at the end. At least in the films, this arrogance and self pitying martyrism was greatly diminished and almost totally gone in this last film... none of the insipid arrogance Harry had toward the others like Rowlings had written in the book... so that is one positive aspect of the film. I was also grateful not to have to listen to an entire film filled with the overacting and caustic voice of Bellatrix Lestrange except for the last 2 seconds where we were delighted to see her blasted into oblivion. She was quite muted without more than a few words in this film. I was quite tired of her annoying overacting and cackling. I never understood why she was allowed to get away with her overbearing absurdity in portraying that character. She was so carried away with herself that she actually punctured the eardrum of Neville in the Order of the Phoenix film with her wand in the scene preceeding the death of Sirius Black. The flying scene with Voldemort and Harry at the end of Hallows 2 was also downright absurd... bordering on clownish.It also was a crying shame how the house elf "Kreature" had all of his good scenes completely eliminated from both final films. Not one scene where he turned around his attitude after receiving the fake horcrux as a gift.Killing off both Remus and Tonks, Dumbledore (book 6), Snape and one of the Weasely twins by Rowlings was totally unnecessary and cruel... especially in a popular childrens book. It was downright insensitive and unnecessary.But they have used the wrong actress for Ginny since the beginning. There was never any spark between their characters (Harry & Ginny) on the screen. She was actually better suited for Neville. Hermione also was not a good match with Ron Weasely either and the kiss in the chamber was ill timed. There was a better spark between Hermione and Harry on Deathly Hallows pt 1 and in the Half Blood prince when Harry consoled her during the Lavender episode. The makeup and costume depts did a bad job on Luna. She barely looked like herself.The dialogue and on-screen time for most of the supporting actors roles are almost nonexistent. Mr Weasely was only briefly in a couple scenes without any dialogue at all. If you blink your eyes, you will miss him. Every scene you can imagine has been rewritten by this mindless APE of a director and watered down into hastened, hacked apart, cheap snapshots. He did a worse hack job on this movie than he did in Half blood prince which was a travesty in the hands of this butcher. Remember how every scene from book 6 was filmed in yellow lighting? It was bad enough to see his destruction of the storyline... but the yellow hue to all the lighting in the Half Blood prince was simply awful and distorted every frame of that film. Yates has no business as a director... much less over the highest money grossing films of all time.It was really sad to see the actors with their hearts not in their acting scenes on this final movie. Everything was flat and lifeless.A dismal end to a fabulous series.I am concerned about Emma Watson. In the previews on the DVD, she looked extremely skeletal and had cut off her hair like a boy. She looks quite severely anorexic. She may have a serious eating disorder. She looks like Mia Farrow in Rosemary's Baby who also looked exactly like this. I hope someone helps her before the eating disorder seriously damages her like the late Karen Carpenter.As for the Ultra violet... avoid buying them if you can. It is like putting a vicious virus full of spyware to search and destroy files on your computer without your permission. Your antivirus software will not remove it as a friendly program. DON'T USE THE DISC IN YOUR COMPUTER. DON'T BUY ULTRAVIOLET IF THERE IS ANY OTHER CHOICE. You will have a heck of a time trying to remove all of the UV spyware and damaging files after using an ultraviolet disc. The only way to get rid of it unless you are a computer expert... would be to wipe the drive and reload the operating system from scratch... and that would destroy all your files if you were not careful to back them up. Unfortunately, they forced UV upon us this time... but it will be the last time and it will never be played on my computer. I can live without other non-potter movies if they insist on adding UV. I only made an exception on Harry Potter because there was no other way to get it on DVD...Forget the blue-ray trash as well. It is only a scam to get more money out of you and force your media purchases under the control of one company who holds the patent. With a monopoly, this one company will control the prices as high as they dare as well as control your options on what you can buy since there will not be any competition. They want to get rid of all VHS which allowed you to copy free from TV and they want to get rid of inexpensive DVD's to ensnare all video consumers into their net... and by net I'm talking about a snare or trap not a network. Be sure to buy older DVD recorder models because they are trying to control what you record from TV now as well. The older models don't have these. This same type of maneuvering is going on with TIVO and DVR. They can actually delete things you record remotely... and have already done so. Just ask people who had copied Ventura's Conspiracy Theory episodes. The Crooks Ventura exposed in the episode about the water stealing scam raised heck so the DVR's from various vendors ALL did a mysterious upgrade which wiped out only those disputed episodes from that one series and none others... in every home across the country... except for those which had their remote access disconnected.As a retired engineer, I worked with a lot of technologies like this and the plans they have for future uses. It would take volumes for me to list everything. Most of you are too young to understand the depth of greed and the control capabilities of these designers of new technologies. Your love of technology will end up eliminating your freedoms, your privacy and your collections. Everyone will end up losing a lot more than they bargained for from the blind love of technology which these entities will use to control everyone and everything. By the time anyone realizes what has happened it will be much too late. This has already happened in other industries which are now controlled by super corporations like Monsanto, Microsoft, GE, Onstar, etc.Stick with plain DVD. The other format manufacturers can't change what they can't sell and the DVD's are quite inexpensive. If you don't buy these other formats, they will stop making them. They won't have a choice.Remember... most people who defend these scam formats usually work for the manufacturer or dealer. They always yell the loudest because they are the ones who have something to lose. It is the honest people who try to warn you of the pitfalls... while the crooks defend it.

The End of an Era: An Epic Closing to a Spectacular Series
I have been an unashamed Harry Potter fan since the year 2002, after seeing "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone" for the first time. The books are without a doubt my favorite fantasy series of all time, and the films some of the best that any major movie studio has ever produced; but that being said, I have to say I was a bit disappointed by the finale as a whole.This has, in my opinion, a lot to do with J.K. Rowling's treatment of the last novel. Up until book six, I had been mesmerized by the depth and uniqueness of the world she had created and felt that the series couldn't possibly have a bummer in it, seeing as how tightly and carefully the plots were wound and how well the characters were written. But after "Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix", she seemed to lose her grip on the storyline, and "Half-Blood Prince" and "Deathly Hallows", while both being incredibly important to furthering the plot concerning the intertwined fates of Harry/Lord Voldemort, seemed so full of incredible faults with their respective titular storylines that they were almost non-cohesive to any of the other novels that had come before them and meandering to the point of absurdity. The introduction of the Half-Blood Prince and the Deathly Hallows always felt largely contrived and nowhere near as significant a McGuffin as say the Goblet of Fire or the Sorcerer's Stone, and often left me wondering why they were even introduced at all. The gripping mystery that often held me in suspense throughout "Chamber", "Goblet", or "Order" just wasn't there, and the brutal and numerous deaths seemed to be thrown in just to create a shock factor.Although I knew exactly what I was going to see, I viewed this last film simply to achieve closure on a series I dearly loved, and while not my favorite, it was pretty good, despite its faults. While among the most heart-pounding of the Harry Potter films, "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Pt. 2,", is easily the most heart-wrenching, ranging from scenes of intense cathartic emotion to all the horrific gore and gristle of war. It usually takes a lot to get me to cry in a movie, but this film had me weeping almost continually for at least the last half-hour.I can't say it was the most enjoyable of the films, because it simply isn't possible to enjoy a movie with so much blood, death and destruction taking place almost every minute; but nevertheless, I liked it, and felt that even the few small changes did much to improve it from the book.The film starts off at a moderately slow pace, the calm before the storm, and then gradually escalates into a full-blown battle between the forces of Good and Evil. I, like many other reviewers agree that not enough time was spent on the minutiae: the more intimate aspects of the battle, or the deeper expositions of the characters, which should have been explored a bit more, seeing as this is the last outing for them; and that many finer points of the plot were glossed over; but all in all, it had a generally good pace throughout. To those who have read the book, it shouldn't be too much of a problem to understand what's going on.At some moments, the gruesomeness got to be a bit much for me--I wish that the general carnage (including several beloved characters) had been lessened from Rowling's vision. In fact, I believe that a little more gore was added. I would have appreciated it if even one or two characters had been spared, if only to lessen the faintly drained, depressing feeling at the end that it wasn't all worth it, even after You-Know-Who has been defeated, because so many people died in the process.The scriptwriter Steven Kloves did manage to inject a few of his own ideas into the thread, including a re-entrance into the Chamber of Secrets (an incident that was mentioned after-the-fact in the book), or an epic-scale, all-out cat-fight between Harry and Voldemort, in lieu of the cat-and-mouse banter from the pages of the novel. As to the ending, which is different from the book, I like what the he chose to have Harry do with the Elder Wand. It gives a good insight into Harry's ethics versus those of Dumbledore or Voldemort, who both wanted the wand solely for the immense power they would gain from it.As for the score, Alexandre Desplat really hit home with it. It is vastly better than his work on "DH1", and the snippets of Nicholas Hooper's "Dumbledore's Farewell" and John William's "Hedwig's Theme" add an element of nostalgia, particularly in the last scene, that is a welcome addition for the final installment.All of the actors and actresses give their all for this last Potter outing, and there isn't one among them that gives a bad performance. Particularly outstanding this final time around is Alan Rickman as Severus Snape and Daniel Radcliffe as the ubiquitous Harry Potter. The scene between them in the boathouse had me sobbing my eyes out, as did the scene with the Resurrection Stone in the Forbidden Forest. There is no doubt in my mind that both sorely deserve an Academy Award for the sheer brilliance of their performances, and make watching this movie worthwhile, if only to see them so expertly practicing their craft.Alan Rickman probably has the most screen time of anyone except for Harry himself, due to numerous flashback sequences in the Pensieve, in which Snape's whole arcane history is revealed, albeit somewhat quickly. Rickman is simply incredible, and manages to build sympathy for a character whom most people probably little more than entirely despised as only a true actor can.Daniel Radcliffe, a person whom I have always believed to be very talented at what he does, comes out swinging in his final performance as the legendary boy wizard. He gives the character such emotional depth and steadfast resolution--he's no longer just Dan Radcliffe playing Harry: he is Harry. I was deeply moved, often to tears, by his outstanding job in this film, something very few actors can achieve with me.To conclude my review, "DH2" is not perfect, but the novel wasn't perfect, either. While the film was lacking in spots and certainly had room for improvement, as a fan, I was quite pleased with it, and feel it was a fairly decent ending for the whole Potter series.

hallows pt 2 - 3 disc DVD blue ray ultraviolet copy combo
I do not give a hoot about the availability of digital copies, it is not something I use or care about since once a film is 10 or 12 years old it will be streaming all over the place on my subscription service anyway. For me blue ray is fine and having the standard DVD with it for now is nice if you still have devices that don't have blue ray drives on hand like I do. So all the issues people were having w/ Ultraviolet and digital rights/availability are not an issue for me and my rating is based on the film itself.This is now one of my favorites of the Harry Potter films, perhaps the one I like the best of all. Well done! A really fitting end to this series, it doesn't disappoint, brings all the loose ends together neatly and retains the "epic adventure" aspect of the earlier films. Plus, it offers a more mature moral, ethical, and philosophical "message" in its content that is understated in the other films but rightly so. The characters are just now at adulthood where the depth of these issues becomes meaningful and realized.After watching it I went back and watched Part 1 again. I was disappointed in Part 1 the first time around and did not find it up to par with the other films - thought it was dull, the plot dragged, and lacked the innovative and engaging aspects and little details of Rowling's "world" that the other films demonstrated. I have to say that Part I seems much much better to me after watching Part 2, especially given the culmination of the deeper messaging I just described in the above paragraph of this review.Overall I have been really pleased with this series of films and found the end of the story to be well executed and satisfying despite that they are a children's story. But then again this was the original intent of Star Wars and Tolkien wrote the Hobbit initially for his own children.Adult friends of mine suggested I read the Potter books and so I have started on the first, breezing through it of course. Rowling is no Tolkien, let me just say that. The story elements engage, but the writing is remarkably curt and pedestrian, even for a children's novel. I have been told this improves/becomes more age appropriate as one moves on through the books, though.I must say I enjoy and am thoroughly entertained by the little world and characters Rowling has created and so enjoy the films immensely no doubt due to the high quality of the productions as far as script, direction, acting, costume, sets, and effects are concerned.Top notch all the way around. I recommend the entire series if you enjoy the fantasy genre but struggle to find HIGH QUALITY production outside of the LOTR series.
