Oh, I don't know if I can even put into words just how much I loved this film. Well, I'll try. I laughed, cried, cheered, and swooned throughout the whole film. After reading and re-reading the books throughout the years, I had wondered if this film could meet the awesomeness of the end of the last book. It did! The performances were top notch. Usually, I'm not that impressed with Daniel Radcliffe. Well, I didn't word that right. I usually think that Emma Watson and Rupert Grint just outshine him. This time, Dan kept up with them. One scene in particular, allowed me to see the magnificence of his face. Without speaking, Dan managed to convey every bit of what Harry was feeling at that moment. That moment was another time in the film when I cried. In fact, it was just one of many times that I cried. Before seeing the film, I had read that Alan Rickman gave the performance of his career in it. I'll have to agree with that. Well, before I go any further, I guess I'd better give a spoiler alert because I want to go into some specifics.

Spoiler Alert!!!

This is your final warning! Spoilers ahead!!!

Okay, here goes. Rickman especially moved me in Snape's death scene. The look on his face combined with the single tear running down his face absolutely gutted me. His memories scenes from the Pensieve were powerful as well. Now, I cannot conclude an interview without gushing about the kiss. I'm sure that everyone knows the kiss that I'm talking about. I'll agree that the angle could have been better. I'm okay with that, though. They grabbed each other with such ferocity and passion. I, along with everyone else in the theater, gave a loud cheer and a whoop as soon as it happened. And then, it's the little details that you notice about it that make it great. Rupert had such a typical "Ron" expression on his face after they had kissed. It was just so Ron. It was like he was wondering, "Okay, was that good? Did she like it?" Then as Hermione smiled, he knew that she had enjoyed it too. I loved that it almost felt more like Rupert and Emma with her smile and then his laugh than Ron and Hermione. It was so natural. Well, I've prattled on long enough. The movie was, in a word, amazing!
