So many reviews I read attempt to bring this film in perspective versus Ms. Rowlings Potter films. It isn't necessary. Ms. Rowlings is a wonderful storyteller. Just enjoy the story and revel in her imagination for a couple of hours. Isn't loosing yourself what movie going is supposed to be about? As an added bonus, I feel certain that after seeing this film you will be looking forward to seeing the next installment. Ms. Rowlings will keep Warner Bros. in the money for years to come.
The bad guys are bad. The good guys are good. There are children being children and adults being adults. It doesn't matter in Ms. Rowlings world if you are magical or muggle the traits within these groups stay the same. Children with hopes, desires, and fears. Adults with responsibilities. And young adults growing out of childhood and into adulthood trying to bridge the divide.
One group trying to subjugate another. Another group trying to free those being suppressed. It's all so easy to relate to in our own lives whether you are a child, an adult, or one in-between. At least there are no zombies :)
