Apparently I'm the only person who didn't like Deathly Hallows Part 2. I liked part 1 and thought it did the story justice. I cannot say the same for the second half.

( And here's why, with book and movie spoilers, of course )

That's totally valid. I'm especially with you on the points about Neville and the deaths of Fred and Bellatrix.

Did *anybody* like the epilogue of the book? With the movie, I felt kind of cheated that it was cut up as much as it was, even though I didn't like it, if that makes sense.

I dunno, I thought the epilogue was actually less bad in the movie because it was cut up and shortened. It seemed a little bit sweeter that way. I guess because seeing everyone on the screen meant less actual description was required.

I tend to agree with all of that. I really hated that the movie was so Jerry Bruckheimer-y. And so emo.
