It was good, but I think everyone should read the books and never just watch the movies to really understand the HP stories. They just can not fit all the HP goodness into 2 hours, and there is so much more to the story!

I really liked how they filmed the movie. They always leave things out. I wished they had had a after the credits thing with this movie.

I even had the perfect idea for it. Having Kreacher going to the next of kin after the death of Sirius and saying " Those people ruining the honor of my mistresses house" Then the next of kin saying "Tell me more"

I know it did not happen in the books but it would have still been entertaining.

Lets see... I found the movie over all very very good...One part that made me mad was the fact that Sirius's death is all wrong! When I read it in the book i cried...In the movie I didn't. That and the fact that everything was so overworked was the only thing i would change about it. When i say overworked i mean..If you hadn't read the book i don't think you would get the movie.

i loved the movie, some of the sets were awesome, especially the ministy, but i got miffed at how much was done wrong, the opening with the dementors was nothing like the book, and sirius' death, was totally wrong, and that really annoyed me, he was stunned, not hit with the killing curse, i don't get why they changed it????

I really did love OotP, But the Way David Potrayed the book into the movie was really crap. They differed so much. There were so many mistakes compared to the book.

I really liked it, they cut a lot out of course, but it wasn't quite as noticable as some of the other films, and they were a little more sensible with what they were cutting out than the others. but of course they arent as good as the books, but I wsnt expecting that

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.
wow it's like you've read my mind I feel excatctly the same

It was great. Just as expected.. But unfortunately , the bigger the book
the more that will be cut out from the movie.. Its a shame that all was not
shown, we'd be at the theater all night. Just imagine how long Deathly Hollows is gonna be..

I think that OOTP was one of the better movies in the series. It was slightly less accurate then one would hope, but it was fantastic none the less!!!! I loved this movie!!!!!

i loved the 5th film, it was fantastic- i especially appreciated how the director explored the impact of the media in forming ppl's attitudes. The only criticism i have was the acting on some minor characters in the exposition i.e. mrs figg and mr dursley- the expression jst didn't match up to the book

It was great but they did miss a lot of it out! Cant complain too much though! I guess people wouldnt have wanted to watch it if it had been too long.... Overall it was a good film though!

I hated the movie!!!!!!!

It left too much stuff out, the directer messed up the dementors and Harry's potronus and a lot of other things. No, I hated that movie.

I thought the film was ok but it was a bit rushed...

The beginging was rushed and ther was not much introduction

The film jst jumped from here to here with no warning and they missed a lot of the small parts and they missed so bits that i was hoping to see

I thought that the battle at the end was good and was the best bit of the film

I thought it was good. I loved the DA parts they were great. I also liked the Ministry of Magic part at the end all of it from the time they got their till the end it was just well done and suspenceful.

I do think they need to put some things in but oh well. I do think that everyone did a good job.

And you can also see a little Harry.Ginny going on if you pay close attention well in my oppion you can.

I voted it as good. It wasn't good enough to be excellent, though.

I think they cut out so many things... I know people that didn't read the books and that felt a bit confused. Maybe they cut things out that seem little, but some details are essential to get the right feeling

I didn't like the end... in the book, it seems pretty intense, and in the movie, they are too happy, there was almost no despair or pain after Sirius' death...
