Where was Dobby?

Rating: 9/10 (19 November 2005)

I gave the movie a 9 because of the artistry, mostly, for the dragons and underwater scenes.
Some of it moved too fast from scene to scene, and there wasn't an explanation given to Harry as to *why*, when his wand crossed with Voldemort's, they didn't destroy each other. (The book explains this, but Dumbledore mumbles something in Latin which meant that they were crossed. . .), and where was Dobby? Dobby was the one that stole the gillyweed from Snape's stores, and where was Winky? And what about more of the pen sieve? The pen sieve explained a lot more. . .and hey, if it would have had to have been a three and a half hour long movie, who cares? It would have been a lot better.
Meantime, I actually cannot wait for the next movie! :) Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix should be excellent...let's hope, anyway. And yeah, like Hermione, I am all for "S.P.E.W." :)
