I thought this one was pretty true to the book and a lot of harry potter fans were happy to BatgirlLibrarian. To Jimmy T what bored you so much?
To be honest, I didn't enjoy the first half of the novel either.
This suffered from Two Towers syndrome in that nothing gets accomplished. On the lamb, hiding out, getting frustrated and angry does not make for driving, powerful cinema. And let's face it; none of the principle 3 are ever going to win an Oscar for their work here.
I knew that was what this movie would be, I expected it, but I hoped they would find a way to better drive the early, boring part of the book. And they didn't, in my eyes.
