Good presentation, missing emotion...

I agree with many of the reviews that stated the movie would be much better having read the book first. So much detail was missing for me. eg: the scenes where Harry visited his parent's grave site; how long were they in hiding (never mentioned). The book made me feel Harry's emotions in these and many other scenes, the movie seemed to much more interested in the action. It was a good movie, just not as good as it could have been.
Oh, and of course it is not for young children (dark). Harry Potter's readers (as children) are well within the college age group now.
Also, we were VERY disappointed that it was not in 3D. Advertisements at movie previews, the TV ads and the internet search when we bought the tickets, all said 3D. I don't think $29 for IMAX was a value without 3D. We felt "hoodwinked".
Yes, I recommend this movie.
