  The first two films were thought to be too slavish to the books by 
many movie reviewers.  The third was supposed to have caputured 
the "real magic" of the HP world.  GoF is generally believed to be 
lacking in a real emotional punch.  
However...from what I understand most HP fans liked the first two 
movies for keeping generally to the books, dislike the story re-
arrangement in PoA and its "artsyness'. Goblet is  too new to come 
to deffinate conclusions, although most fans find in favor of it, 
despite the severe cutting the book had to go through. Rushed is the 
correct word for it.   This is just a quicksummary of what I have 
found in reading most HP sites.

  In my opinion I liked the first two movies for sticking to the books. I can't stand it when stuff is changed to much. The PoA was way to changed for me because I remeber when I came out of the theather for PoA I couldn't be quiet with how much was chaged and how I didn't like it to much. To me GoF was way better then PoA but like everyone else said it did lack some emotional punch. I did really like the graveyard scene but then again I agree it could be to early to say to much about the GoF. I should have the movie by next week or something so then I should be able to tell after watching a few more times and being able to replay and stuff.
