I completely disagree -- When they get around to making that film, he will 
have the physical presence to carry it off, and he already has the emotional 
range.  He's shown quite impressive skills at depicting rage, resentment, fear, 
joy, all of which are what spring to mind when I think of Harry in OoP.  
Resentment is a normal part of most teen's lives in their mid-teen years, and yet, 
in CoS, when he was asked if he knew what to do when the guests arrived, he 
said, with perfectly depicted and controlled resentment, that he was to go to his 
room and act like he didn't exist (paraphrasing).  

Spoiler ahead:

As for the book being capable of being filmed -- I saw it as a movie as I 
read it. The fight scene, in particular, will be quite amazing on film.  Can't 
you visualize the whole group of wizards escorting Harry on broomsticks on their 
way to Headquarters?  The Thestrals will be amazing, surely not a lot more 
difficult to create than Buckbeak.  I can't wait to see it as a movie (but I 
want to see PoA and GoF FIRST, of course!  ;->)
