Well, my sister and I have seen every single Harry Potter movie since release and have seen all of them on each review day.
With high expectation for this movie we waited for its release. One thing I've learned is that the longer you wait for a movie and the more you are expectant of great things to come from it. The movie usually seems worse then when it really was. Well, this was not the case at all. In fact, we loved it!
This movie does a fantastic job of keeping you on your feet. It is extremely suspenseful and may even scare you even if you have read the book numerous times like myself.
The only reason I give this movie a 4/5 stars is simply because I felt that they left out a fair share from the book. I noticed that if you had never read the book that at times you may feel they go without explaining the current plot and setting. They seem to leave out a majority of the detail. Which, I know it's a movie and hard to carry over a perfect transition. But, they did a poor job on explaining the how they continued to get where they were.
With that said, the movie itself makes up for that! They give different twists from what actually happened in the book, so when I was expecting certain parts to happen, they didn't! I was always on my feet and never once took my eyes off the screen.
Great movie for the family to see, but I will say PG-13 may be pushing it for the younger crowd. It could invoke nightmares. I'm not too sure. It was a little vivid, but for my sister and my age (20 and 22, respectively) it was amazing!
