Went to see it today--you know the one. I still hold with my opinion that the first is the best of the movies (third's my favorite of the books), but this one gives it some solid competition. At first I was of a mixed attitude. As always, the visuals and acting were quite good (well, I wasn't so happy with the acting in the third, but anyway...), but it seemed a little choppily done, and I thought they cut too much out. No House Elf Liberation Front, no return of Dobby... :-(
However, Brendan Gleeson made a very good Madeye Moody. Also, we do get to see Moaning Myrtle again, to hilarious results (if you've read the book, you know the scene). In the same scene we get to see that our young Mr. Potter is growing up quite nicely.
And then there's Ralph Fiennes... Marvelous--absolutely marvelous--as Lord Voldemort. In my opinion, he steals the show...
