Well, as a die-hard Potter fan I went to see the new Harry Potter movie. As a die-hard Potter fan I have mixed feelings regarding the movie.
Until Order of the Pheonix (OP) the movies have tracked fairly close to the books. This all changed with OP. I'm not certain this is due to the complexity of the book or the producers/directors just felt like being creative. Since J.K. Rowling is supposed to have a lot of creative control over the movies it's probably the former. However, it's dissapointing in some aspects.
Now, with that said, as a stand alone movie it wasn't bad. True, a little darker than the other previous HP movies. But the books/movies are growing in maturity with her (JKR) audience.
Another surprise I had was that the theatre wasn't as full as expected.
