This is a great movie, with wonderful acting and effects. Just about everything in the movie is straight from the book. But at over 2 hours, it is still missing large chunks. However, most of the omissions were probably for the best, and kept the action going. There was not one minute of Quidditch in the film. It had probably been just about done to death in the first 4 films, so this omission is understandable, even though it played a decent role in the book. Cho and Harry did not go on their date, but are the Harry Potter films really consistent with teenage angst and romance? Maybe not so much.
I was a little disappointed that the screeching letter to Harry's aunt was gone. Also, that we didn't get to see that Dudley supports Harry's story of the dementors. Fred and George's tricks are condensed into one great scene. This could have been a nice series of short clips: the students torturing Delores after she becomes headmaster.
