slowly growing on me

Rating: 8/10 (4 December 2008)

Through the first hour of the movie all I could do was laugh at the craziness that I was seeing on the screen. As with most books-turned-movies I had a TOTALLY different picture in my mind of just about every scene as it occurred. The next 45 minutes was outstanding. I really began to feel like it was a real, professionally made movie. I am still a little disappointed in some of the acting talents that were chosen, but could I ever compare? Who knows? The last time I tried to act was 11 years ago in an elementary school play. I am hoping, however, that as the series continues to be made into films that the talents increase. It's the first movie I'm sure it was difficult to really grasp the entire character as a whole. Having finished the entire series in 5 days before I went to see the movie I already knew the ending and knew what I wanted to expect.
When I left the theater I was still a little confused but throughout today I have really begun to enjoy what I saw last night. I might just have to go see it again!
