Saw it yesterday. It was good but not as good as GoF.
The things they seemed to have forgotten about when making it: Dudley is blond. The Room of Requirement can't be entered by force. Most of them can't see the Thestrals. Cho didn't tell Umbridge about the DA. The prophecy is actually important. Death Eaters and The Order were never able to transform into wispy black/white thingies. Sirius was not hit by a Killing Curse. Levicorpus is a non-verbal spell only.
However, these are the things I really enjoyed: Those really trippy bits when Harry seems to be on drugs. The suitable insanity of Luna. The Death Eaters' masks. The Ministry. Voldemort vs Dumbledore. Cho.

haha i love how the last thing i Cho. yeah i agree with ravie that a lot of things were off but a lot of stuff was good. i was worried about the girl playing Luna b/c she didn't really look like Luna Lovegood to me but she hit Luna with a bullseye! i was so happy about that.

I went and saw it again the other day with my brothers, and it seems to me guys like the 4th one best because is has more 'action' throughout the entire movie. I still prefer this 5th one the best, xd

i'm not totally sure on which one i like more b/c the 5th one was more off in my opinion but it was still an awesome movie. i guess next time i watch it (on DVD) i wont have the book fresh in my mind so that'll make me enjoy it more.

I hate that Voldemort does NOT have red eyes in these movies...HELLO PEOPLE WHO DO THE MOVIES!? I mean at least read the book once before you tackle it on the big screen and get some details right.
I hated that they made Hogwarts very highschool like.....i know thats the way it was supposed to be but in the books i looked at it as way beyond that...this woman was evil....not just some really prudent new principle....pffft...these movie makers will never get it right...
Plus i wanted Mrs. Umbridge to actually LOOK like the image in the book...i wanted her to be toadlike...
Oh and another thing that bugged me!
THE STATUES PEOPLE! The beautiful water fountain with the statues that were supposed to jump in front of Harry and Dumbledore...FIRST they were seperate statues and second...during the fight scene...to my shock...they just STOOD there....GAWSH!
Oh and i hated that Dumbledore looked like the fight with Voldypants was really trying...When i read that part I'm always amazed because what Dumbledore does seems effortless and he talks in a conversational way, not fearing Voldy, not being too winded by the duel...and Voldy was the one blasting away and fighting to win.....I just hate this guy that plays dumbledore.
They need to reread every part of that character again..the guy is calm and has a twinkle in his eye and RARELY gets upset to the point of it actually becoming noticable and doesn't yell...this guy seems mean and what i would imagine Scrimagoer (sp?) to be like.

Well, I wouldn't quite go that far... but the thing about Dumbledore is true: I've never got used to that actor playing him, because he's too loud and harsh instead of calm and thoughtful. When I read the books, Dumbledore is still Richard Harris to me.
Also, what I said about Levicorpus isn't strictly true. However, it really shouldn't appear until HBP.

Richard Harris *looked* more the part....i didn't like his hoarse voice thought...i always though of his voice in a very clear tone...always very prepared to make any statement he was making and also just a tad bit of a happy person, as if he was talking with a smile
