As a movie by itself, I thought it was very entertaining and kept me interested throughout. As a movie in the Harry Potter movie series, I thought it flowed well with the others. As a book adaptation, though, I was rather disappointed.
I did not, however, go into the movie expecting to get dazzled. The others had left me disappointed from a "book to movie" sense and I had a feeling this one would be similar, though I had hoped I was wrong. A scene not in the book was added that, frankly, seemed out of place. Granted, this could just be the fact that it wasn't in the book.
Lack of characters, though, is what annoyed me the most. So much happened in the book that they just left out. Most of the memories were not played, though if I was told correctly they were taped, just edited out …
