Harry Potter

We went to see Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince yesterday and were VERY disappointed in the movie. We were okay with some of the early departures from the book because we knew they were for time and they stayed true to the basics of the story. About halfway through the movie, I got very annoyed because a scene that is NOT in the book was inserted into the movie. This extra scene did nothing to advance the story line and actually destroyed a key local for the 7th movie. We were also very disappointed with the way the movie ended; a lot of the more interesting scenes from the book were actually left out and the movie just fell kind of flat because of the omissions. Up until now, I have been really pleased with all of the Harry Potter movies and they have all been pretty consistent with the books (a few changes for time, etc can be forgiven), but this movie just didn't measure up to the others. I don't think I will be getting this one on DVD.
