Every Wizarding World Movie Ranked

5. Harry Potter And The Deathly Hallows - Part 2 (2011)

Fantastic Beasts And Where To Find Them
Warner Bros.

As is the case with every movie franchise, Harry Potter's was always going to be a tough one to end. But with The Deathly Hallows Part 1 out of the way, Part 2 wastes no time bringing everything to a bracing finale.

Brought to life with epic action sequences and shockingly dark visuals, Harry Potter's farewell finds the Boy Who Lived finally facing off with his greatest foe, whilst his friends do battle with the forces of darkness that threaten the world and everyone - muggle and wizard alike - in it.

It's not without its flaws, of course - Voldemort's demise is frustratingly anticlimactic, Neville's speech almost painfully awkward - but its most pivotal moments remain some of the franchise's very best.

Between the heartbreaking final moments of Severus Snape, the awe and wonder of Hogwarts as a battlefield, and its affecting goodbye to the young wizards many of us grew up adoring, The Deathly Hallows Part 2 is a brilliant achievement which can't be overcome by its missteps.
