... movie for those, like myself, that haven't read the books. The movie gives you an insight of the relationship between 4 characters in the awkward teenage stage. You won't find too many fighting sequences, which I presume the book does, instead you are looking into their soul, experiencing their feelings and following every emotional stage that they go through. This movie pretty much gets you ready for what is coming... the final battle and how far these new emotions take these 4 characters. I thought it was well written with excellent acting and awesome scenes. Don't read the Potter books until the last movie comes out that way you won't compare one with the other. Go to the movie and enjoy it... it's worth it!
