Harry (Daniel Radcliffe), Hermione (Emma Watson) and Ron (Rupert Grint) are in the real world now, a first for the Harry Potter films as the majority of Potter's adventures in this film take place outside the safety zone of Hogwarts and in a very real world that suddenly makes our youngsters seem a lot more grown up and a lot more vulnerable than ever before. So, if you're standing there in line for your first Harry Potter film right now at 8:00 pm the night before the film opens killing time on your smartphone, I highly suggest you move your tail out of line and head on home to witness Potter's earlier adventures before trying to make sense of this, the first of the two-part Potter swansong. This film is made for those who have devoured each and every book, perhaps several times, and who have seen every film, know every character and who can appreciate every nuance of the Harry Potter journey. While you'll likely appreciate the special effects, film techniques and well developed characters, Harry Potter & The Deathly Hallows, Part 1 is a film truly made for Harry Potter connoisseurs. If Harry Potter & The Deathly Hallows, Part 1 is your first venture into the world of Harry Potter, what are you thinking? Are you mad?
