I thought the movie was a little upsetting that it didn't cover all the scenes in the book, but the movies never do.
I did really enjoy the movie though. I liked how it encorporated the funny parts and the sad parts. Also, the way Draco really got to show his feelings in this one was great. The books are always better than the movies so I can't complain. HBP was good as a preface to the battle to come. I really showed the sides being taken by everyone.

The film was quite good really.. The Felix Felicis and Cave scenes were awesome.. But I really wished they included the Gaunts and Dumbledore's funeral! um.. The Ginny/Harry romance was a little bit.. er.. strange for me I can't find the correct word for it..

I hated it the first time I saw it. The shock had worn off by the time I saw it for the second time, so I managed to enjoy some parts of it a little more. The main things that upset me were: - the battle in the astronomy tower (it would've been SO much more exciting if the DA turned up to fight); - a bit too much focus on romance; - they made a point of showing the Elder Wand in Dumbledore's Office at the end. Maybe I need to re-read Deathly Hallows, but isn't Draco supposed to have the Elder Wand after the battle in the astronomy tower? How are they going to fix that up in the last movie? Apart from these major things that I didn't like, the trio's acting has improved. Emma Watson has improved dramatically. I understand that they need to make changes when making a movie from a book, however they made the astronomy tower battle LESS exciting when usually book scenes are omitted if they're not exciting enough.

I hated it. I dragged my boyfriend along to see it with me, nearly had a panic attack in the que to by the tickets because almost all of them were sold out, spazed about it for weeks before hand and even cried everytime I watched the trailer which was like 100+ times. So when i saw the film i was verrry very dissapointed.
There are a few bits in it that i like, but as a whole in my eyes its the worst of them all. But then, all of you are saying that you've watched again after the shock had worn off and what not. I haven't. I refuse to watch it again as it annoyed me so much and I spent a week complaining about it non stop.
maybe one day I'll watch it again and like it, but as of now I don't haha

Oooft, yeah. ^_^ Maybe you'll like it when the Deathly Hallows.. finishes? Because then it'll be part of the whole Harry Potter series. And it will have to be great. Come on, watch it again!

I'm surprised by all the people saying how much they love it!
I dislike it the most out of all the Potter movies. I wouldn't say it's the worst movie, but I thought it focused far too much on romance. I know that the book had a good amount of romance as well, but I felt like it was a bit overdone in the movie and took away from other parts.

I actually just watched it on Friday because I finished the book on Wednesday. I thought it was a good movie overall, but there were some parts I would change to make it better (Like the Harry/Ginny kiss. Ugh, I hated that part! Not like in the book at all!) But I thought other parts like Sectumsempra (like some of you said) and the whole thing before and when Dumbledore dies, like in the cave and the Inferi. I thought Dumbledore's death scene was great. Sad, VERY sad, but great with the acting and special effects and everything. I wouldn't change it at all. But my ABSOLUTE favorite part was when Harry was on Felix (My friend calls it "Drunk Harry" ) and when he was at Hagrid's hut for Aragog's funeral. I LOVED LOVED LOVED how after Hagrid said "Spiders are very misunderstood, it must be the eyes" Harry said "NOT TO MENTION THE PINCERS!!" and made the clicking noise aaaaaahhhhhhhh that was so funny and cute I was cracking up <3 I love Dan(:
