二部構成で贈る最終章、歴史的フィナーレの幕が開く!
Part1はハリー、ロン、ハーマイオニーに課せられた使命であるヴォルデモート抹殺の鍵を握る“分霊箱"を見つけ出すところから始まる。今や守ってくれる人も、導いてくれる師も失い、これまで以上に固い結束を求められるハリーたち。しかし、闇の力が、しっかりと結ばれたはずの3人の絆を引き裂いていく・・・・・。
一方、かつてないほど危険な場所となった魔法界。長いあいだ恐れられてきたヴォルデモート卿の復活が現実のものとなり、魔法省ばかりか、ホグワーツ魔法学校までもが死喰い人の支配下に置かれた今、安全な場所はもはやどこにもなくなった。ヴォルデモート卿の命令により、ハリーを生け捕りにしようとする死喰い人の魔の手が迫る。
そして、分霊箱の手がかりを探すうちに出会った「死の秘宝」の伝説。ほとんど忘れられた古い物語に記されたその伝説が本当なら、ヴォルデモートは、分霊箱を上回る究極の力を手に入れてしまうかもしれない・・・・・。
ハリーはまったく知らないが、彼の未来は、彼自身の過去によってすでに決められているのだ。“生き残った男の子"になった日に、ハリーの運命は決まった。
初めてホグワーツの門をくぐったあの日からずっと積み重ねてきた準備―――それらはすべて、このヴォルデモートとの決着の日のために・・・・・。

The Magic Is Back!
2010年11月19日にアメリカ合衆国でレビュー済みAmazonで購入
I'm so very happy that I can recommend this one without any hesitation at all!
The last couple Harry Potter films disappointed me in a myriad of ways. My disappointment didn't cause me to hate them, but I did feel let down and I have to admit that I found Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince pretty forgettable. But, being a Potter fan, I still found myself rushing out to see Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Part I today. And to my great relief and happiness, I loved it - really loved it! Yeah!
The chase of the Seven Potters by the Death Eaters and the trip to the Ministry of Magic are tense and exciting, the endless camping trip is just as effective at portraying the helplessness and frustration the characters are experiencing as it was in the book and the scene that gives us Hermione reading Beedle the Bard's "Tale of the Three Brothers" is riveting and wonderfully creative - much, much better than I would have thought it could be. We finally get to meet Bill (and Fleur's briefly-glimpsed wedding dress is gorgeous!) and the whipped cream on top of all this goodness is that the film is much more humorous than I expected. While not everything is included, of course, I didn't come out of this film grumbling things along the lines of "How could they leave out _____?" or "Why did they add ________when it wasn't even in the danged book?" - both comments I have been known to make after viewing some of the other films. Instead, I left the theater feeling like I'd seen a relatively faithful rendering of the "real" story. And there were even one or two things that I thought the film did better than the book, most notably the interruption of Harry & Ginny's kiss. The not-in-the-book added scene of Harry and Hermione dancing was both amusing and incredibly poignant - a true highlight of the film for me.
For some reason, the enjoyment this film gave me seemed to lift some sort of weight off me - which seems a very odd thing to say, I know. I think it returned a good deal of the joy I found in the earlier films - when seeing the characters and the places come to life on the screen was so magical. (That first glimpse of Hogwarts!) In a way, I feel like I'm back *in* - that I'm once again immersed in the film version of the story in a way that more closely echoes the effect the books had on me. While the films, IMHO, can never hope to match the books, Harry Potter and The Deathly Hallows, Part I, let me feel the magic again. For that I thank everyone involved with it.
I thought the acting by Daniel Radcliffe, Rupert Grint and Emma Watson was better than it's been in any of the Potter films - they really seem to have come into their own here. Helena Bonham Carter was freakishly perfect as usual, Jason Isaacs very good and Rhys Ifans as Xenophilius Lovegood a welcome newcomer. The film sounds good - the score is a mood-setting addition to the film (especially effective, I thought, were the screeching radio sounds during many of the camping scenes) - and it looks even better. The shots of the English countryside are beautiful but often seem almost overwhelmingly empty and lonely - perfect for the story.
When it was announced that Deathly Hallows would be split into two films, I was glad because I hoped that by doing so the filmmakers would be able to do justice to the complexities of Rowling's plot. And now, having seen Part I, I feel that they've succeeded in doing just that. After this, I can look forward to the last film, not with dread, but with pleasure. And I am incredibly thrilled to be able to say that.
Very highly recommended!

I particularly enjoyed the many small and delightful details they took care to include. Harry's youngest fans, though, may be disappointed that the rides are geared to older fans.)

The ads before the movie are so old. And it’s weird buying something and then seeing ads. But the disc works fine. Watched the whole movie with no problems.

A stellar adaptation of HP and the Deathly Hallows
2010年11月20日にアメリカ合衆国でレビュー済みAmazonで購入
Given that the concluding novel in the Harry Potter series covers so much in terms of plot and characterization, it is fitting that the movie was divided into two parts. I was quite wary about this latest installment in the HP franchise after some of the liberties taken with HP and the Half-Blood Prince (though I still loved it). I feel that HP and the Deathly Hallows Part 1 is one of the most (if not, the most) faithful adaptation of a HP novel to be brought to the silver screen. There is a perfect synergy of all the elements that made me fall in love with the story of HP as written in the books - great characterization made possible by credible and amazing acting; gorgeous cinematography; a score that perfectly captures the angst, tension, and drama of the unfolding story; and special effects that awe without overwhelming the audience or detract from the story.
The only thing I'd like to mention and I feel is important is that this particular installment really does require prior knowledge of the Harry Potter novels. This movie takes it for granted that viewers will be able to fill in the blanks, like why does Hermione have to perform a spell on her parents which erases her existence from their memories? Throughout the movie, little snippets of Potter lore are sprinkled about which will delight any devoted fan but might confound and frustrate any newcomer to the series (which is why I would recommend starting from the first movie and working one's way through the series, in order). To really understand all that is going on, and the significance of certain things unfolding during the movie, I would recommend reading the book (to be able to see a particular scene and think, "That's exactly how I imagined it would happen!" or "Ahh, so that's the significance of the ..." was an enriching and immensely satisfying experience for me).
I am not going to rehash the plot in detail - basically, this movie takes off some time after HP and the Half-Blood Prince ended. Harry (Daniel Radcliffe) sends the Dursleys off to a safe spot as he prepares to go on his quest for the remaining Horcruxes which hold parts of Voldemort's soul. He is joined by best pals Hermione Granger (Emma Watson) and Ron Weasley (Rupert Grint). Part One of Deathly Hallows traces the trio's journey and sense of aimlessness (for they know not where the remaining horcruxes are); tension and strife between Ron and Harry; Hermione's sadnesss at losing Ron briefly; the constant pressure of being on the run; and perhaps most significantly, discovering that each of them truly have a purpose, that it is together and not individually that they are able to gain advantage over the Dark Lord. The actors who play the leads have truly come into their own and it is just amazing to see these young actors mature into and inhabit each of their roles with credibility and assurance, playing their characters with great depth. It is even more amazing given that they have been playing these roles for more than a decade, yet never do they show that they are tiring of their roles or just doing it for the money - there's real passion here.
My only grouse is that Snape (Alan Rickman) does not get much screen time, but I'm sure that will be redressed in Part Two where he plays a more significant role. Helena Bonham-Carter was a hoot to watch as usual, playing the maniacal role of Bellatrix Lestrange with a fervor unmatched by any screen villainess in recent time (at least in my opinion). Ralph Fiennes portrays the Dark Lord with a credible sense of evil and malignancy, though his appearances in this installment are mainly via flashbacks and Harry's connection with the Dark Lord's thoughts.
Three things that caught my interest (well, many things actually, but these three were unique): The dramatization of the tale of the three brothers, i.e. the Peverell brothers was done via animation, and it is gloriously done, with understatement yet is effective in conveying to the viewer the significance of this tale to Harry's quest. Another was the controversial scene between Harry and Hermione (spoiler ahead!) - Hermione and Harry are shown in an intimate embrace during a confrontation with the Dark Lord's soul and Ron who has been beseeched with doubts regarding their relationship flounders whilst the clock is ticking. This scene was tastefully done, and not explicit at all (except for kissing), so the PG-13 rating is safe! Finally, the scenes of persecution against the Mud-Bloods were so well-done and captured the hysteria that was so reminiscent of another time in the past, i.e. Nazi Germany during WW II.
Overall, I feel this is a great set-up to the final installment in the HP series, and will especially please ardent fans of the novels. There is a perfect blend of drama, tension, bleakness, and even humor. Recommended!

A worthy build-up to the grand finale.
2010年11月22日にアメリカ合衆国でレビュー済みAmazonで購入
As always, I must start my latest HARRY POTTER review by stating that I have never read any of the books and thus cannot weigh in on their faithfulness. I enjoy the films, but have never enjoyed them so much that I want to read the books. I've been okay with the every year or two 2.5 hour dose of Harry and his friends.
DEATHLY HALLOWS PT. 1 is the first half of the final chapter in the saga (as virtually anyone who draws breath knows already). And as the first 6 films can be said to be a build-up to the final chapter, this first part of that final chapter is a great deal of build-up with relatively little payoff. At least, from a pure plot perspective, not a lot fills up the 2.5 hours this time.
But if you're interested in the relationships, particularly between Harry, Ron & Hermoine, this is a very satisfying chapter. In fact, much of the film focuses almost exclusively on these three friends. Hogwarts is not glimpsed at all, and many of the recurring characters we've grown to know over the course of the series are scarcely seen (Snape, for example, appears in only one scene) or missing altogether (no Maggie Smith at all). The movie has a chilled, insular feeling to it.
If you are unfamiliar with the basic story and plot of HARRY POTTER...I'm sorry, but I am not the best person to give you that kind of background. Presumably, if you're interested in this film, you've got a familiarity with the story that has come before. If not, you need to go back to the very first film and start there. It would be a heck of a ride.
In THE DEATHLY HALLOWS, we see that the world of magic is descending into a frightening political mess. The Ministry of Magic is turning into a fascist state, and "good" wizards and witches the world over are in hiding and being hunted down. It's a dangerous time for all. And we also know that the evil Lord Voldemort is preparing to confront Harry and then move on to dominion over all. Times are bleak, and the film is literally dark throughout. In the early going, there are some "funny" moments (one in particular features all of Harry's friends drinking a potion to make them look like him...there are some priceless reactions), but for the most part, the film is grim. Eventually, Harry and his two closest friends literally go into hiding from the rest of the world...traveling through desolate landscapes in search of a way to destroy a Horcrux (a talisman that holds, I think, a portion of the soul of Voldemort). They also seek more Horcrux's...and other stuff too. I'm unclear on some of this, because honestly, the details of what all Harry and his buddies are trying to accomplish seem somewhat vague to me. I just kind of take their word for it.
So as they run around the forest, or around lakes or other landscapes that look terribly windblown, these three face their own first truly adult arguments, hurt feelings, etc. As you may know, Ron loves Hermoine. Hermoine feels the same way, but hasn't worn those feelings on her sleeve...so when she and Harry appear to grow closer...Ron feels alienated. He's never been the bright one or the magically adept one in his group; now he feels totally useless, resentful and hurt. It's perhaps too simplistic to say they've got a love triangle going...their feelings are a bit more complicated than that, given all the external stress they're dealing with as well. In these scenes, which are infused with the sadness of friendships that are losing their childlike innocence, the three young actors (Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson & Rupert Grint) do some of their best work ever. This must come, at least partially, from the fact that these three kids have grown up together on the set of these movies. They have an ease together that they never achieve when onscreen with other performers. Many of the scenes have relatively little in the way of special effects going on. It's just two or three kids, sitting in a tent, or in the woods, having whispered conversations. Depending on how much you enjoy this series for the character development of Harry, Ron & Hermoine will determine how much you enjoy DEATHLY HALLOWS PT. 1.
If I make the movie sound small and contained, there are some BIG scenes that take place in the wonderfully rendered Ministry of Magic that nicely remind us that money is no object when it comes to these films. The movie isn't skimping...the story just seems to be drawing in a deep, slow breath in preparation for all hell breaking loose.
I look forward to the final movie. DEATHLY HALLOWS PT. 1 did a great job in building that anticipation (and contains a great final moment that practically makes you cry out at how badly you're left hanging). It's not the greatest movie in the series (it's tough to say which film IS the greatest, but I might lean towards GOBLET OF FIRE, with it's wonderful mix of the grand, the comical and the scary), but for fans, it is essential and rewarding viewing.

This must come, at least partially, from the fact that these three kids have grown up together on the set of these movies. They have an ease together that they never achieve when onscreen with other performers. Many of the scenes have relatively little in the way of special effects going on. It's just two or three kids, sitting in a tent, or in the woods, having whispered conversations. Depending on how much you enjoy this series for the character development of Harry, Ron & Hermoine will determine how much you enjoy DEATHLY HALLOWS PT. 1.
If I make the movie sound small and contained, there are some BIG scenes that take place in the wonderfully rendered Ministry of Magic that nicely remind us that money is no object when it comes to these films. The movie isn't skimping...the story just seems to be drawing in a deep, slow breath in preparation for all hell breaking loose.
I look forward to the final movie. DEATHLY HALLOWS PT. 1 did a great job in building that anticipation (and contains a great final moment that practically makes you cry out at how badly you're left hanging). It's not the greatest movie in the series (it's tough to say which film IS the greatest, but I might lean towards GOBLET OF FIRE, with it's wonderful mix of the grand, the comical and the scary), but for fans, it is essential and rewarding viewing.
