I knew the books were better than the movies, but this one didn't even come close. Someone's ego and artistic license got in the way of what could have been a great movie. Too many significant parts of the story were left out. Sections were changed so much that there was no resemblance to the past or future HP storyline. I'm wondering if they held back parts to create "flashbacks" in the next 2 and final movies. If so, they've run the risk of losing fan interest by producing such a disappointing movie. I won't bother going to the theater again, I'll just rent the movie for the next two. I hope they don't wait another year! Shame on the producers, director, writers and studio for taking great material and creating such a mediocre film.
