The sixth Harry Potter film is leaps and bounds better than the ones of the past. There is no point in whining about what was in the books that didn't make it to the big screen. The books are simply to long to get in every fun little detail. HBP managed to at least give us a full story, and it can stand on it's own as a film. It looks like someone made these kids take acting lessons, because the perfirmances were exponentially better than before. Tom Felton was the star of the show, with his anguished performance of Draco Malfoy. Daniel Radcliffe was less wooden than he has ever been. Rupert Grint gave an brilliant comedic performance; the whole theater was in hysterics.
