I thought POA was the best till yesterday when we got to see DH1. Just too bad this wasn't the standard for all the others but then again, fans always want so much more. Much better acting and sure hope that carries through to DH2. I got over wanting everything from the books in the movies a while back, but have to say they really did justice to the book in so many ways. It was 2 1/2 hours packed full and yet in some ways it seemed like it was, at most, half that time. No way I was going to the bathroom! Rupert has such a comedic bent to his work but really showed a lot more depth than I expected. Have to save up for another go round on this one for sure. No gripes this time!
