Though short compared to the book, the film was fantastic.

Rating: 9/10 (7 February 2006)

I felt that this movie was an excellent adaptation to the book, and by far the best HP yet. I was disappointed on some minor levels, but only because i am a die hard Harry Potter book fan. I felt that the writers did an excellent job in taking a 700 or so page book and turning it into a 2 and a half hour film. Though for many this may have been long, I was shocked at how short it was. It really kept you on the edge of your seat, never a dull moment...ever. I thought that acting was the best it ever has and that the actors themselves had made the film much easier to watch as a whole. In some of the previous films, there were some teeth grinding moments but in this one the acting was by far much smoother. Over all I loved the film and it is one of my personal favorites for 2005.
