Movie Watch: Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1

Yesterday I went to watch the latest installment in the Harry Potter movie franchise, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1, with Queenie at Plaza Singapura.





We watched the movie in the 2D version as we felt that 3D movies are not our cup of tea. This first part of the movie is mostly focused on the backstory in the book and hence, is less action-packed. The second part promises to be more action-packed and I can't wait for it to be out next July.

However this first part is still good and worth the watch. Harry, Hermione and Ronald have finally grown up to the reality of the harsh battle with Voldemort. They have to be on the constant run from the Death Eaters that pop out from nowhere to hunt Harry down.

The most emotional part in the movie came when Dobby was killed while trying to save Harry and his friends from Bellatrix. I knew this was going to happen since I have already read the book but I still can't stop the tears when I saw it onscreen. In fact, Dobby was among the top ten trending topics on Twitter when the movie is released.

It is amazing how Dobby can make the trending list but not the movie's name. Twitter can be such an asshole sometimes. Nonetheless, I would recommend this movie to anyone who is interested to watch.
