When a movie is made from a book, there is always something that needs to be cut out. For the most part it's small stuff. However, in this movie we lost a lot. How did Dumbeledore get Marvolo Gaunt's ring?(which is a major plot point in the book). We don't see Harry explain the Horcruxes to his friends, which takes away some good scenes. We also miss Dumbledore's funeral. On to the good stuff. The Hermoine & Ron Chemistry is finally revealing itself, and you internally cheer for these two. The same can be said for Harry and Ginny. Tom Felton is finally given a chance to play some other sides of Malfoy, which he does well. the teenage angst/love/rivalry storyline reminds us that these are kids..who just happen to be wizards.
