The actors have gotten so much better since this first started. It was nice to see Tom Felton spread his acting wings a little. That being said, I have to agree with another person that stated the story line felt "disjointed" at certain areas in the movie. The effects, costumes were great, and for the most part the movie was pretty good, if you haven't read the books. But there is crucial information left out that pertain to the next story. Yet they were able to add a completely new scene not in the books. Hummm!!! don't know what they were thinking.
