My main issue with the 6th movie is the ending. It was completely changed. Where was the battle? And the funeral? They basically changed the story with that ending.

And as someone already said, The Case Of Missing Scar. Did no else notice Harry didn’t have his scar until Dumbledore did magic at Slughorn’s house? The scar is vital to the story people, let’s not forget that.

Cheryl, the use of the phrase “huge wet blanket” is rather ironic considering you are referring to a 21 year old, tattooed fan of shocking cinema. As for John Williams, he writes good themes but I find his work overpowering for cinema.

JenniMikki, I don’t think you quite understand the point of a review. A reviewer gives an honest account of their reaction to a film whether they liked it or not. Besides that, I never said I disliked it, I simply said it was flawed. The plot point you’re talking about was not the part I was referring to (and the plot is rather basic, not, as you claim, confusing, beleive me). I was instead referring to the business with the memories and the splitting of souls.

Please remember when you’re commenting that this is a REVIEW and thus a statement of opinion. My opinion is no less valid than yours simply because there are a lot of Potter fans out there. If you can’t cope with my pointing out flaws in your pet favourite franchise, please don’t comment. I have different tastes to you, it doesn’t make me wrong.

The reason I say that is that apparently you have no idea what’s missing from the movie. My biggest complaint about the movie is that they skip so much of the book, the plot line is confusing. As to why Dumbledore had Harry speak with Slughorn, it was to get Harry into Slughorn’s confidence. Harry’s presence convinced Slughorn to come to Hogwarts. Dumbledore needed the full memory, and the man wasn’t going to give it up outright. The movie does not cover that point well at all.

While I like the visuals the movies bring, I have disappointed in every one since the 3rd. I enjoy bits of the movies, but they do not show anyone’s character well enough. Am I looking forward to parts 7 and 8? Yes; I’m a Potterhead. Can’t help it. But when I have to explain a lot of a movie to my husband because he hasn’t read the books, the screen writer and director are not doing their jobs. If I were Rowling, I would never have approved of this script.

So, do I agree that the movies are not all that? Yes. Do I think Jo’s stories are crud? No. I love her writing, her plot lines, her twists, her ability to wrap so many people up in each other and make so many characters mature in believable ways. I DO find it interesting that you seem ticked she’s gotten rich off her books, and you therefore seemed to have had to wait to read the rest until you were beyond Harry’s age. That’s a bunch of blarney!

It’s quite alright that you don’t like the story, but honestly, why have a Potter Meher review a movie they could never like anyway? Next!
