It's Part I, so not too many conclusions. Having read the books, I understood a lot of what was going on, but for those in the theater who did not read the book, it could be a little confusing. But for a true fan of the books, it is exhiliarating to see the book come to life on screen. The movie creators had an incredible task to condense the story down to the most important parts, and I believe they succeeded. A few of my favorite parts got the ax - the messages to Harry written on the remains of his parent's home, the statue in Godric's Hollow and Kreacher's story - but the essential pieces to the story were there and were done beautifully. Can't wait for Part II!
