This is my favorite Harry Potter movie so far. The only reason I don't give it 5 stars is that I think it would be hard to follow if you hadn't read the book. Loved the photograpy, the storyline and the lack of special effects...very refreshing after the last H.P. film! I do think it should have been PG13 because the story is too sophisticated for little ones - and the overall mood is quite dark and sad. The four twelve year olds that I took, loved it!
