When it comes to Rupert Grint, one role will always define his place in movie history: Ron Weasley. To many fans, the epic conclusion of the Harry Potter saga not only marked a milestone in his career but also delivered the series’ most celebrated and unforgettable chapter.
Before joining director Hanna Bergholm’s first English-language feature, Nightborn—which premiered at the 76th Berlin International Film Festival and starred Grint and Seidi Haarla as young parents in the Finnish woods—Rupert Grint had already become synonymous with Ron Weasley. From 2001 to 2011, he played the beloved character across the Harry Potter films, earning numerous nominations and awards, and cementing his status with audiences worldwide.
The eighth and final film, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows – Part 2, released in July 2011, was notable for several reasons. It was the only entry in the franchise shown in 3D and became the first Harry Potter film to surpass the $1 billion mark at the international box office. Steve Kloves wrote the screenplay, having worked on all entries except the fifth. The film saw the wizarding world descend into all-out war, raising the stakes higher than ever before. No character was safe, as Harry faced his ultimate sacrifice in preparation for the final showdown with Voldemort. Grint’s Ron Weasley was right in the center of the action until the very end.
With over 60,700 user ratings and nearly 3,300 reviews on AlloCiné, a prominent French movie review platform, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows – Part 2 holds an outstanding average of 4.2 out of 5—making it the highest-rated film in Rupert Grint’s career to date. Here’s what some fans have shared:
Rocky6 (5/5): “The grand finale of the Harry Potter franchise lives up to its promises, concluding the series with a spectacular flourish. The final confrontation between Voldemort and Harry is breathtaking, containing truly remarkable scenes. With secrets revealed and tragedy for certain characters, the magical trio once again leads the fight against evil. A dark, thrilling film that beautifully ends one of cinema’s most beloved sagas.”
Nicolas S. (5/5): “Epic! Two hours and ten minutes of pure adrenaline. The special effects are top-notch, the performances are excellent, and the music adds weight to the story. The script and dialogue are brilliant. Though it can’t quite surpass the book, it comes very close and stands out as an exceptional film. David Yates and his team bring out emotion, suspense, and occasional humor, despite the somber tone. My only criticism: the movie is visually dark, almost black and white at times. The saga concludes magnificently, captivating the audience one final time.”
MaCultureGeek from Club Allociné (5/5): “At last, the final episode! David Yates outdoes himself, delivering what might be the best film of the franchise. The movie feels grand and dramatic, powered by epic music, spectacular set pieces, impressive visual effects, and a somber, uncompromising script. Harry Potter, the series that shaped my youth, goes out in a stunning last act that reignites my love for film.”
Candice L (5/5): “An excellent finale! True to the book and captivating from start to finish, the cast delivers their best performances, capping off a long and wonderful adventure. Moving and intense—Harry Potter will be missed!”
Marsjajan (5/5): “Huge, beautiful, masterful! The conclusion to the Harry Potter saga is formidable. There’s constant excitement, never a dull moment, and the direction is outstanding. As always, the actors are phenomenal. Pure magic from start to finish.”
While Rupert Grint has since appeared in other English-language films, his portrayal of Ron Weasley—especially in this dramatic finale—remains the definitive highlight of his career. If you haven’t yet watched Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows – Part 2, now is the time. Its top-rated status and enduring popularity speak for themselves, and it remains a must-see for movie lovers across the globe.
