Atmosphere, special effects, well acted, Evanna Lynch
can't possibly live up to the book
I won't be as long as speeddemon as (he or she) covered most of the problem in detail. I'm a sort of book purist to so I missed all that was left out. For the people who haven't read the book, I think you'll enjoy this one. I'd say it was better than the last two.
I'm still disappointed with Michael Gambon's portrayal of Dumbledore. Having "met' him in the books I just can't get with the portrayal we're getting. Of course making it worse is that before he died Richard Harris had pegged the character so well.
The best "close to the book" performance I thought was Evanna Lynch, she (to use the same word a second time) pegged Luna. She does the "odd, innocent and wise" girl very well.
The main feeling I had during the movie was that everyone was telling a story in "fast forward". there was just too much story to squeeze into a little over two hours. Still, my kids loved it, so I know it will be enjoyed, enjoyed more by those who haven't read the books or are able to separate the book and movie and sort of look at them as separate stories.
By the way, if you haven't read the books, don't miss out if you like the movies wait till you get the whole story!
