I enjoyed the movie. I was suprised by the amount of screen time given to the budding relationships of the teenagers, but I know the movie will be appealing to them because of it. I haven't read the books up til now so I do not know if this is part of the story line! The refreshing thing was nothing was overdone and everything seemed normal if Harry Potter can be considered "normal"!??? I hate that I have to wait to see how everthing turns out which might make me read the books!
