I agree that it was cinematically beautiful, but
it didn't feel much like Harry Potter to me.
The characters were changed way too much, from
GirlPower!Hermione to Moron!Ron to almost
Moron!Harry.
Some stuff was just plain silly (Hermione picking
up Harry one handed while swinging from the
Whomping Willow, that dreadful werewolf,
Hermione's werewolf howl, to name just a few).

Some scenes dragged out forever (the Knight bus
ride) and others went way too fast.

I found after watching it twice that I was just
bored by most of it.
So were my daughter and her friends.
They were all book readers, though, so I don't
know if it was more enjoyable for other viewers.
