1. Did I enjoy it? YES
For awhile, the Harry Potter films became very episodic, introducing a few new characters that would be involved in a dilemma solved at the end by Harry and his two loyal friends. This one begins the same way but takes a new direction into some of the darkest adventures yet. We find out some huge revelations about characters we've followed from the beginning, and one of them meets his maker. Pretty intense stuff for kids, yet the film does have a PG rating. The special effects and overall look of these films are first rate, and the latest entry is no exception.
2. Would I watch it again? NO
As with the majority of these films, the movie does suffer from overlength. There are very few films that need to exceed the two hour time slot, but I suppose with six films already in the series, pushing portions of these films into the next one would probably mean twelve movies. Maybe in ten or twenty years, I'll revisit these films, but not in the near future. Did I mention I fell asleep during Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone? Gimme a break, it was long too.
