walking out of the 12:01 movie, i was almost upset that i had even bothered to stay up all night. i am a HUGE harry potter fan, and have pretty much liked the movies (for themselves vs. compared to their respective books) so far. with HBP, however, not only did the movie not follow the book terribly well but as a movie, it was pretty boring! there was very little plot; the action (which was heavy in the book so they had a lot to work with!) was pretty limited. all in all, it didn't fulfill expectations!
