What’s impressive is that, where earlier films revolved around solving a mystery, this one shifts to a war footing without losing its emphasis on character and emotion. Lesser villains must get their comeuppance, heroes must fall, and Ron (Rupert Grint) and Hermione (Emma Watson) must get a room already. Voldemort himself has to be killed and there must, surely, be a giant battle involving every surviving character of the franchise. The mysterious “Deathly Hallows”, three powerful artefacts allowing the user to conquer death, must be uncovered and claimed. Scraps of bad guy Lord Voldemort’s divided soul, hidden in “Horcruxes”, have to be found and destroyed - a process that will involve a bank heist, a dragon and a large, dead snake. The shortest film of the lot, this may be based on only half a book but it has a mountainous plot to climb. Thank Dumbledore, then, that director David Yates and screenwriter Steve Kloves managed one last herculean push to finish things in style.

The final film presented a gargantuan challenge to its makers, who were required to juggle gigantic action scenes with emotional heft and jaunts into the metaphysical to explain its labyrinthine plot. After ten years, eight films, four directors and over $6 billion at the box office, it comes down to this. It’s hard to express how much the last Harry Potter matters to its fans, and how important it is to finish the series on the right note.
