For the die hard Harry Potter fans out there, Id say give this movie a try. Heck, for anyone out there give it a try. I thought it was a very good movie, just surprising in more ways than one. To my personal knowledge this book was where the darkness of the series really began to flourish. Yet the movie to me seemed much more like a comedy. It was very funny and therefore still a very good movie, just surprising like I said. Also, for the honest and true Harry Potter fans, you will notice that many things were either changed or left out. I didn't take this into consideration because movies based on books do that many times, but it's still something to look at. All in all, it was a very well done movie.
