Very mixed feelings

First off let me say that I didn't 'dislike' the movie. The acting was great on all counts, the effects were fantastic and I loved the dark feel. But, the ending is the first and foremost 'man that sucked!' If you are not going to have the Deatheaters do the fantastic battle scene that Rowling wrote, then it was rather pointless to bring them into Hogwarts. There were also added scenes (especially the Burrow) that had no bearing on the plotline. It would have been better to expand the moments with Dumbledore and Harry rather than add in random fighting. So, well done in not disappointing me as much as Goblet of Fire. Well done each of the actors who are progressing more and more each time we see them. But still very meh.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

This was my second-go-round for Trek, saw it the first time at the IMAX and it was just as fantastic on the repeat as the first time. This was a truly fantastic trip into the world I've loved since I was knee-high, I think Roddenberry would have absolutely loved it. I hear they've already green-lighted another and I'll be on pins and needles waiting :)
Yes, I recommend this movie.

FANTASTIC

Ok, I'll grant you that there are elements of the movie that I didn't really care for such as the added scenes with Victoria, James and Laurent that didn't appear anywhere in the book and really didn't add much to the movie aside from 'tap fingers and look at watch' time. But that doesn't detract from how extremely well both Pattinson and Stewart did bringing these characters to life on the screen. Stewart makes a fantastic Bella and Pattinson makes the movie, not only with his utterly delicious good looks but with his brooding determination to keep Bella safe even as he can't stay away from her. I loved it and will own it the second it hits DVD!
Yes, I recommend this movie.

Effing Fantastic!!!

From the previews I could already tell that I'd love it but many movies have promised amazement and failed to deliver in the past. However Dark Knight not only delivered, it amazed. Every actor gave their all and Ledger was utterly brilliant, a fantastic pinnacle to his career and a fitting epithet for an exceptional actor.
Yes, I recommend this movie.
