I personally enjoyed this movie. I am concerned about how like to critique things so much. I go to enjoy the telling of a story on the big screen not to critique every little detail. Get over it already. Who cares what the critics think. Do you like the books? Did the movie entertain you? There's absolutely no way to include everything from a book into a movie. I enjoyed the first two movies and I am ready for the third and fourth. This was a great mother-daughter night out movie for my friends and their daughters and well as my daughter and myself. I only wish people could enjoy going to movies instead of looking at every single detail.
