Good Movie, shame so much of the story is missing

Rating: 3/10 (21 November 2005)

Harry Potter fans are likely to be very disappointed with this movie. If you have read the books up to and beyond Goblet of Fire, you will notice a significant portion of the original story is missing from the film, to a much greater extent than the earlier films.
I understand that certain things would have to be removed - the book is _big_, however many key elements are missed out, many of which will have a significant impact on the later films as the storyline is incomplete.
Perhaps the inevitable "Special Extended Edition" DVD will fill in some of the gaps! Missing story elements aside, the film is otherwise excellent. If you haven't read the books this is a must-see, and if you have read the books then forget what you know, keep an open mind and enjoy anyway!
