it was OK .

Rating: 7/10 (18 July 2007)

Personally being a huge fan of harry potter, and never has there been a book yet that i haven't read more than once, i found this film to be rather rushed and quite honestly too much.
Although not remotely dull at any point, the film payed very little attention to detail and rushed through what i imagine being every 4th chapter of the book. They cut far too much out of the book to make the film and in the end skipped from scene to scene far to fast.
If they had made the film just a little bit longer and had perhaps put in just a little more detail in the ministry it could've been much better instead of a 30 second wander around before all hell breaking loose.
if, unlike me, you have seen the film and not read the books therefore had not quite the same expectations this film would have been great.
it is truly an amazing film, but not enough adapted to the epic book itself.
