The darker scenes were indeed dark and somewhat bleak, especially the beginning at Malfoy Manor where it looked like a film noir, while the scenery in the middle of the film was gorgeous. Criticism aside, I adored the production values. As beautiful as it was, it didn't admit much to the story. I think it started and ended brilliantly, it was the middle where it dragged with a lot of admiring the scenery. If I do have a criticism here, I do agree that the pacing is rather slow.
I also think they made the right decision splitting it into two parts, if they hadn't the result I think would have been too rushed. After seeing it with my family last night I have to say Amen! This was a wonderful film in my opinion, and it does a very good job sticking to a mammoth story. I saw Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1 with high expectations, there were many friends of mine who said it was brilliant and the best yet.
None of them are masterpieces, but they are likable, entertaining and I think well made too.
Just for the record, I love the books(for a while Philosopher's Stone was a huge favourite of mine) and I personally like the films.
