I thought the final Harry Potter to be fundamentally flawed.
Some parts went well (I liked the final used of the Pensieve),
but many of the plot twists seemed arbitrary (the kids either
seem almost invulnerable or completely idiotic) and the Kings
Cross chapter was a self-indulgent deux es machina with cloying
religious overtones. "... Of course it is happening inside
your head...".
