The very long book was expertly abridged to include the important points necessary for advancing the story line. The romance which could have been cloyingly sticky was not. There was evidence of deep feeling, but it was not given more screen time than the main theme of the fight against evil. The evil characters are increasingly evil. Dumbledore is portrayed as more of a moral, thoughtful intellectual rather than asa a quirky odddity. But of course, this is because Harry and company have matured and see adults as allies and equals rather than authority figures. Splitting the final book into two films will give scope for more of the details that we all love.
