The highly anticipated movie turned out to be a disappointment

i am a really big fan of Harry Potter.
but i couldn't help but being frustrated and quite angry after i left the cinema.
i had been waiting for Harry Potter and The Order of The Phoenix movie since early this year, as i expected a lot from the movie.
i read the book for a few times already and i know the storyline very well.
one of the things that made me very disappointed was how the director changed some of the scenes. and i thought that some of the scenes were very blurry. for some people who haven't read the book, they would have a lot of questions in their mind as each scene was not complete.
i think the movie was too short.
i was expecting it to be atleast 3 hours because the book is 700++ pages long.
i expected more from a box office movie.
the characters were ok except Harry, he was suppose to be an angry kid. i was expecting him to throw tantrums and shout more. but no.. he was still a polite person. Cho Chang was also a disappointment. i really disapproved when Katie Leung became Cho Chang. wasn't Cho Chang suppose to be a stunningly pretty and petite girl? i certainly think that she wasn't cut out to become Cho. not only that, she wasn't a good actress. i know it was only her second movie, but still.
Ginny Weasley's character was suppose to develop more in this movie. there should be a few love scenes as well.
Hermione, Ron, Neville and the Weasley twins weren't a disappointment. atleast these five people could act pretty well.
Luna Lovegood should be praised as well. she did very well for her debut film. and her characteristics were similar to how they were described in the book.
as for the members of the order of the phoenix, they were ok i guess. i was expecting to see more actions and dramas at 12, Grimmauld Place. Lupin was suppose to play a greater role in this movie.
the Death Eaters were good too.
but i have to say the fight at the Department of Mysteries was not elaborated well.
there was supposed to be more actions.
and i don't remember that Voldemort possessed Harry for awhile. that was bullshit.
however, i thought that the effect when there were flashbacks of the people that Harry loved was really good and i have to admit, i cried during that scene and when Sirius Black died.
Umbridge's character was well developed, i guess. but i don't remember her being a very pink person. she was annoying as described in the book.

i think that this movie was by far the worst compared to the previous ones.
i hope the director David Yates learns his lesson and will make the 6th movie better.

as for you people who haven't watched the movie, i would obviously say that the movie is highly not recommended.but still, even i, who heard the critics before i watched the movie, still eager to watch the movie and judge it myself.

whatever it is, please read the book before u watch the movie. =)

i can't wait for the final book, which will be released in 9 more days. i hope the rumours that Harry/Ron/Hermione will die is not true. coz that'll ruin my day and i'll be crying like hell.

i'm looking forward to see the death of Severus Snape and the Malfoys at the hands of Harry Potter himself. even if harry dies, he still managed to kill the assholes. Voldemort doesn't seem to bother me that much.
