Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, along with a couple hundred teenaged Potter fans (The were a couple of grownups wearing ties and mufflers in the Gryffindor colors). The Hood family agreed it was slow and it dragged and the pace was slow and draggy, and when it ended, a great many voices in the theater grunted out, "Huh?" Yes, we all knew it HP7 part 1, but the ending seemed ill-timed.
Although I enjoyed director David Yates' previous Potter films, this was a different-feeling movie, more grim than the fun and whimsey of the others. There was a chase that looked like it was lifted from a Paul Greengrass Bourne movie, then shot full of steroids.
However, I did enjoy it overall, especially the fact that so much of it was presented with the idea that we already know what's going, so we don't need no stinkin' exposition.
I am anticipating part two next year, when all the action happens.
