After seeing an early review on TV, I was looking forward to this movie. We have gone to the midnight showings of each of the last two Harry Potter movies and so did the same last night. This movie lacked the action and suspense of both the book and the previous movies. Far too much time was spent on personal relationships and visual imagery and not enough on the heart of the story - the consolidation of power by Voldemort and the desperate struggle to find some way to defeat him. Unlike at all of the other HP films, the crowd did not applaud at the movie's end and that is the best indication to me that I was not alone in being disappointed in this film. It was just OK, not great.
