Great movie for fans

from Houston, TX
DH was one of the best HP movies so far. The pace was good and the director at least tried to stay true to the book
Of course things had to be shortened or cut for time, but the story suffered for some of it. The kids "on the run" time felt like a week or so instead of the months it took in the book. And there was almost no lead up to their breaking into the ministry. It just seemed like they got a wild hair and did it with no plan.
This does not mean that the movie was bad, quite the opposite and the maturity of the actors really shows. It will most definitely keep you on the edge of your seat. But for those purists out there who think it should be exactly like the book, you may be disappointed. If you are not a HP fan, you will be lost. For everyone else, IT WILL BE GREAT!

Yes, I recommend this movie.
