Potter film breaks record in US

[Lady Brave]

I saw the movie yesterday and I was really disappointed. It felt like the movie was on fast forward from the opening scene. Very little time was spent on the Order. Barely any conversations that took place in the house were shown. It was the same with the prophecy storyline. Most of the focus was on Umbridge. The scene transitions were poorly done. Worst of all there was too little time spent on the battle in the ministry of magic and the conversation between Dumbledore and Harry. For those who are fans of the movies only, if you haven't read book 5, you will be thoroughly confused.

I haven't read the book but I did see the movie. It seemed to go by pretty quickly and the first thing I said to my girlfriend after the movie was "They didn't really talk much about the Order of the Phoenix did they?"

It wasn't a bad movie per se, but I think Goblet of Fire was significantly better
