After waiting for 1hr in a que last night to see poa, i was extreamly excited by the time i got a seat. By the time the sceans with the dursleys had finished i was hoping that dan's acting would get better! thank goodness it did. he managed to steal all sceans from every1 else.

i'll start off with my fav bits first. the night bus was fabulous & just the way i pictured it when i read the book the 1st time. when harry got squashed on the windows i was in histericks. the quiditch match was fabulous, alfonso managed to get the weather perfect and the dementors chasing harry was so scary. my other fav bit was everything after the wimping willow attacked harry & hermione. hermione was brilliant holding on to the tree & getting flung around. the shreaking shacks sceans were creepy with the noises in the background and the werewolf lupin & sirus fighting bits were fab. oh yeh, buckbeack is amazing & draco get what he deserves twice, once with buckbeack & again with hermione (go girl)!

i did feel the leacky cauldron sceans were very rushes & i was looking forward 2c diagon ally again, but i didn't! alfonso managed to potray the dementors on the hogwarts express really well & it sent a chill down my spine.

sadly :ermsmile: i'm not too keen on the new dumbledore though, he got on my nerves a wee bit, when greating them back for a new school term.
i'm also a wee bit sad that macgonical and snape weren't in it more.

dawn french was brilliant as the fat lady, very funny.

i really enjoyed the fact that so many sceans were shot outside & glenco looked fabulous (it made me proud to be scottish)!

however, i was really sad when it ended, cause so much was missed out or changed. if you're going don't read the book before, it's best that you don't or you'll be constanly saying "what about this or that" the film felt rushed and was far too short! only 2hrs 10mins max!

eventhough i still give it a 8.5 out of 10!

any true fan will love it, dispite it's small faults.
