    nice movie

  • hope

    i knew it would :) finally saw it on line liked it actually, ‘xcept the kiss between harry and ginny wasn’t as hot as i was hoping as well as a lot of folks. Ron and Hermione’s romance is much more interesting. Emma was right when she said Rubert was a great kisser the scene with him and Jessie Cave(Lav Brown) proved that. Can’t wait to see what they do in the next one!

    This movie is pretty damn AWESOME! I love it and I’ve already watched it three times and I can’t wait to go again. They definitely left alot out from the book, but I think they did a great job of capturing the overall tone of book 6 and setting up Deathly Hallows. I know some people think there was too much romance, but there was actually ALOT more in the book than there was in the movie. But I loved it and I think they had just the right amount to balance all the dark moments. The acting is Brilliant! The special affects and the cinematography are STUNNING! I can’t wait to see what David Yates does with Deathly Hallows!!

    I just saw the film today and I have to say my initial reaction is that it sucked. Yes, the acting was fine, the special effects fantastic, and the inclusion of so much froom the book (for a change) was appreciated. However, that is part of the problem – I thought there was TOO much of the book in the movie. Youcan only fit so much in and still get the point across. There was too much focus on the teenage angst and not enough on the plot to set up movie 7. In particular I was supremely disappointed the scene with the Dursleys was completely left out.

    The movie was bullshit. They took out a lot of important parts for jokes and romance which isn’t what the books mainly about. They added stuff that wasn’t even in the book. I would love to know how they are going to make the 7th movie when it starts out at the weasley house for bills wedding if bellatrix burned down their house with the encanted fire. Which if u read the 6th book and didnt just wait for the movie , clearly states that things in the dark magic fire cant be fixed. The movie was a dissapointment.

    I loved the movie there was just one thing at the end there was supposed to be a big battle with Snape and the others fighting their way out of the Castle Why,Oh Why wouldn’t they put that in the movie. That was the only thing wrong with the movie They really needed to put that in..
