I am a LOVER of the books, therefore I had a hard time with the movie. As mentioned by others, they changed things that didn't need changing and omitted things crucial to the end of the book. The death scene at the end was a VERY POOR excuse. It didn't play out at all how the book did and quite frankly I'm curious how they will explain a good portion of #7 with this ending ... book readers will know what I mean (hint Elder Wand????). I would not have have missed going to see the movie (obsessed - who me??) but was still dissappointed.
