I figured to give this a four, but I couldn't. It just looked too good on the 3D big screen. I highly recommend seeing HP7 at IMAX.
I am not a follower of the books - I read up to #5 and stopped. They were all really good. All the other movies were good, but I missed a lot of what happened in #6 and #7a. There were a couple things I was kind of like "huh?". Plus, I'm terrible with accents.
Without reading the books, a lot of the plot was predictable; however, I didn't expect a lot of the action scenes that were in the movie, and they were way, way better than I expected!
All in all, I'm not a long-time fan of Harry Potter, but this movie was fantastic.
This is among the best movies I've ever seen. It was well done, the plot had depth, and the 3D & effects were stunning. It had the feel of an epic role playing game that has come to life.
