Why Deathly Hallows 2 Deserves That 87 Rating on Metacritic

-
And, for the record, 87 is VERY high.

And, natch, spoilers.

1. They get out of their first big jam (at Gringott's) because of a long-standing theme in the series: Hermione's hatred of animal cruelty.

2. How bulked up Ron looks.

3. The silences. Long, unhurried silences.

4. Neville Longbottom, The Hero of Gryffindor.

5. How perfectly they aged the kids for the coda.

6. Daniel Radcliffe, when he is 40, will look Mikhail Baryshnikov.

7. The beautiful cinematography.

8. The romantic notes that were kept very understated.

9. They made room, even if only for a few seconds, for every English actor who's graced the movies with their talents.

10. It was just bloody great.
