I must say that I was not impressed by his acting skills in SS/PS. He 
was very young, but on the other hand I thought Emma Watson and 
Rupert Grint did a great job. Like someone has mentioned earlier, he 
didn't have any sense of timing among other things. With that all 
said, I was really impressed by his skills in PoA. He has grown so 
much as an actor. The other two have become better as well by the way.
Now about the future. Haven't there been rumours that Dan has
been thinking of leaving the project? 
And another thing, I'm kind of worried that even though the series 
have given him a lot of publicity, it might be the ruin of his future 
carrier. "Daniel Radcliffe? Isn't he the one that played Harry 
Potter" I'm afraid that's what it's going to be like for him in the 
future.

But on the other hand, arguing with myself, the same thing has 
happened to Elijah Wood. I mean how many doesn't associate him
with 
Frodo now? He has had a lot of movie projects after LOTR. 

I don't know, I'm just putting down thoughts here
