The special effects were outstanding! However, the storyline seemed unbelievable -- far fetched. You could guess what was to come next almost in every scene. This would not be a good movie to view at home. Did not live up to the previews. The character that Woody Harelson played just added to the far fetched feeling this movie gives you.
This movie was kind of confusing and boring. The ending was definately confusing as well. Not the excitement and wizardry the other HP movies had. I think the steam has run out of the HP movies....
After reading the book the movie was a bit disappointing. It left out a several characters and a sideline (Alexander and the Guardian Ad Litem also his love) and the ending was completely different from the book. It was a bit slow in spots as well. I liked the book much better.
