Excellent! Although of course there were things left out, it was very well done, and followed the story line pretty well. They also made sure to emphasize things that will be important in the next movies. I laughed in many places, and even cried in a couple, even though I knew what was coming. I thought the acting was wonderful, particularly Alan Rickman, and I loved seeing Harry, Ron and Hermione going through all that teenage angst. I would definitely recommend this to everyone!
