I know many people were unhappy with the last movie. I wasn't one of them. I thought Half Blood Prince captured the spirit of the book, even though so much had been cut, which is something I found lacking in Goblet of Fire and Order of the Phoenix. This movie blew me away though. So much so that I was ready to go back to the theatres the next day and see it again just to take in any details I might have missed. Deathly Hallows, Part 1 is the closest any of the movies have stuck to the book since Philosopher's Stone.Even the dialogue is as close if not closer than ever before including some of my favorite lines, "Always the tone of surprise," and some new gems, "Dobby didn't mean to kill anyone. Dobby only meant to maim or seriously injure."
It started with the Dursley's leaving, and though I missed the awkward goodbye scene with Dudley, it was a small thing. Lupin's self doubt was omitted as was Potter Watch, but not to the detriment of the film in any way. The only part that was slightly awkward for me was that they threw Bill Weasley in, when, for six movies, they've ignored his and Charlie's existence. But it was a quick introduction and it was forgiven as soon as the action started...
