You definitely have to have been a fan of the books (or first few movies) to understand what was happening in this film. However, if you are not into the Harry Potter series, one may still enjoy this movie for its use of creative technologies. I felt as though the imagery I created when reading the book was put into this movie. Every scene was exactly (if not better then) the way I imagined it. This is the sixth installment with one more on the way - I cannot wait to see what they do next!
Awesome graphics!! Many scenes all about "curving the bullet" and the ending could've been better but overall, one of the best action flims I've seen in a while.
