I thought it was pretty okay. I'm sorry that I didn't like the movie more; maybe it was because my sister and I read OotP aloud right before seeing the movie, so we were comparing it a lot to the book, and I find the books are always better than the films.

I felt that the scenes, if they weren't skipped altogether, skimmed the surface. They didn't seem to have a lot in them, in my opinion. THat was just my first impression...I know I need to watch the film again!

The acting was awesome, though. Everyone was amazing. I was thoroughly impressed by Evanna's performance (what a perfect Luna!).

I found the end duel between Voldemort and Dumbledore a bit disappointing for some reason. The statues in the fountain didn't move!

But the CGI, which was practically everything, was great!

The part in the DoM when Harry is fighting with Voldemort in his head is absolutely excellent.

I found the end a bit disappointing in Dumbledore's office; it didn't seem really real to me. Harry didn't even seemed extremely irked or saddened by Sirius' death.

I loved how they finally hinted the ships right! The Ron/Hermione action in this film was adorable. And I'm not a R/Hr shipper; I'm a D/Hr shipper, curiously enough. But R/Hr actually grew on me because of this film.

On that note, I loved the whole trio bond. They really seemed like genuine friends in the movie, more genuine than was evident in other films, I thought.
