Daniel Radcliffe says, “[Deathly Hallows Part 2] is pretty spectacular. I mean, I really don’t think anyone is going to be disappointed. I think the action is all fantastic… Lots to look forward to!”
Emma Watson seems to agree, enthusiastically saying, “Bloody hell! It was so much more than I could have ever anticipated it to be. It’s a remarkable film, and I’m like the most critical person ever! It exceeded all my expectations. Epic… it’s like epic times four!”
And movie critics can’t find anything negative to say either!
