Terrific life, and after-life, in 'Deathly Hallows'

This is the Big One — the last of a decade-long saga on the screen and an emotional journey that will sweep you away. "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2" brings together an entire tapestry of characters, and they treat it as the time of their lives. The result is a marvelous film — even if you can't tell a Horcrux from a horoscope — and shows how one character's fate intersects with a kaleidoscope of characters and puts truth to the adage that no man is an island.
