I was very excited about this movie, and really wanted to see the book brought to life. I was thoroughly disappointed! It lacks all the crucial details that set up the stage for the finale. As you watch the movie, you grudging accept the changes that have been made, anticipating the thrill of the final confrontation that ends with Dumbledore's death. And when that scene is also completely changed, you're left feeling thoroghly cheated. Still....if you're a die hard Harry Potter fan, you've got to see the movie.
