16.Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows,Part 2has set new nationwide and global box-office records for ticket sales in its opening weekend.The final part of the Harry Potter series is creating the perfect storm of record-breaking box-office sales.Before this movie,The Dark Knight held the opening weekend record.The Dark Knight actually sold a few more tickets.But with 3D and IMAX ticketing as well as the passion of fans who have waited for a long time to see the ending of J.K.Rowling's brilliant story,the final Harry Potter movie was going to be hugely successful,no mater what.
And as if film-makers were magically able to save the best for last,critics(评论家) completely agree that The Deathly Hallows,Part 2is the best film of the entire series and there has been little negative(负面的) to say about the performances of the film's stars.When they were 10or 11years old,Daniel Radcliffe,Emma Watson and Rupert Grint have grown up on the big screen.They grew in their character as the story was told through the years.
As the story draws to a close,the final Harry Potter film is set to break the $1billion mark in worldwide sales.And even though the film series is finally over,J.K.Rowling's Harry Potter will live on in different forms of merchandising (附带产品),including major theme parks,action figures and almost certainly,various versions of the story.
