   Roger Ebert (Chicago Sun-Times): "'Harry Potter' now possesses an end   
   that befits the most profitable series in movie history. ... [A] solid   
   and satisfying conclusion."   
      
   Kenneth Turan (LA Times): "'Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows --   
   Part 2' turns out to be more than the last of its kind. Almost   
   magically, it ends up being one of the best of the series as well."   
      
   David Edelstein (New York Magazine): "Expecto Patronum, it is! 'HPATDH   
   2' works like a charm."   
      
   Peter Rainer (Christian Science Monitor): "The collective emotion   
   arising from the last installment of the "Harry Potter" franchise ...   
   is a sense of loss. Even for those of us who have not found the films   
   transcendent, there is some regret."   
      
   *Salon (Andrew O'Hehir): "[T]his final installment, driven far less by   
   acting and characterization than any of the preceding seven, fails the   
   Peter Jackson test of becoming an affecting and absorbing work on its   
   own terms."
