Well, they did it again. They took the book, made the right cuts here and there, and came out with a brilliant adaptation of the book. I was very impressed by the film. I think they chose all the right stuff to keep in, and nothing felt seriously missing.
I guess if I had to choose something that could have intileed more fear about the death eaters, would have been that instead of having them burn the camp, it would have been better for them to actually have performed the Imperiso curse on some people, particularly muggles, and have them dancing in the air. But really, that's nit picking big time.
Also, I do think they jumped scenes about quickly at times, but thats just the nature of the beast, I think, when you are taking a 700 plus page book and turning it into one movie.
But honestly, truly, what I really enjoyed the most, was the acting on Daniel Radcliff's part. I've always liked him, but I never really felt that he delivered the emotional impact that I wich he would. This film was a real transition for him. At one point I was extremely tense and saddened by what had happened, but it was Daniel's response in the scene that actually made me cry. I was very impressed. Also, Emma Watson and Rupert Grint, James and Oliver Phelps (The Weasly twins) and especially Mathew Lewis (as Neville Longbottom....) he was brilliant! And, as always, I was impressed by Micheal Gambon, really much more the sprightly Dumbledore I had always pictured, and Jason Isaccs still gives me the perfect creeps as Lucius Malfoy.
Great Movie!
