First I have to say that, as a movie, this was an excellent film. Fast paced, exciting, fun to watch. However, for those of us who are die-hard fans of the book, this movie falls in line with the other films in this series. Very little of the actual plot existed, leaving much to be desired and lots of holes. What significance was the Half-Blood Prince? Why did the locket mean so much? Dumbledore's Wand? There was so much that was left out, I was incredibly disappointed. As I said before, though, as a movie it was great and I DID enjoy watching it, just not for Harry Potter.
