Yes, it was brilliant.

Rating: 10/10 (2 October 2010)

As a 12 year old, I've grown up basically with my life around Harry Potter. I've seen ever one, each very different but very good, this one is no exception.
I've read all of the books over 5 times each, but unlike most, decided to watch the movies first. So when I first saw this movie, it was spectacular, I was 3, but I still know my mum said it was my favourite film.
It was only when I had read the book and decided to watch it again, that I noticed that it lacked a lot from the book, mostly the funny comments from Fred and George, and also Dumbledore's very funny madness. It missed out the most of the beginning of the book, which I would've liked to see, as in the: Uncle Vernon noticing odd looking people in cloaks, Harry being hugged by a cloak- wearer while shopping, and Uncle Vernon being told how "You-Know-Who is now gone, even muggles shall celebrate this day".
I chuckled a lot while reading the book, and it had been so long since I'd seen the film I thought I'd revisit it. However, it turned out that the moments I chuckled at in the book weren't there in the film. Especially Fred & George, my main reason for laughing.
But yes the film was spectacular, though very different from the new films of it's series, which, if I'm not mistaken, have different directors on them.
I do, however, think that this director, went a little bit too far in trying to make it seem like his previous child films, in that the children, though the heroes in the end, have occasional "child" moments, which can be described as their "stupid" moments... e.g- their late reaction to Fluffy.
Overall the film is a great film, but indeed not the best of it's series, which for me personally, has to be the Goblet of Fire.
All round, it is a good film, though.
