Books are far better!

Rating: 5/10 (16 November 2005)

The movie was disappointing. It was very choppy and if you have never read the books, you would be EXTREMELY lost. The scenes were so short since they had to make it through so much book. There didn't seem to be much talking either. I wouldn't have minded having an intermission for a two-part film, and I don't think Harry Potter fans would oppose either. The music wasn't as captivating as the other movies, which is probably because John Williams didn't compose the music for this film like he has in the other ones. I do hope that he does for the next film. I wasn't a huge fan of the other movies, but they were better than this one. I think that if you are a hard-core book fan, you will probably be disappointed in the movie since it is missing so much. If you only see the movies, be prepared to be completely confused. Decide for yourself if you like it or not, but I was highly disappointed.
