My only complain with the past few Harry Potter movies had been that they left out too many things. Although it is going to be horrible waiting for the next one to come out, by splitting it up they were able to include more things from the books. The Deathly Hallows Part 1 is another good example of the movies matureing with the audience. I belive it is the darkest and scariest, for younger kids, movie yet. I believe it stayed true to the book, however I haven't read it in 2 years. The visual effects and action just keep getting better. Very good movie!
