The last 30 minutes are mind blowing with breathtaking special effects, how I got through the first 1 hour and 40 minutes I've no idea, there appears to be no plot, there is no building of the main characters continued from the last film. I have to agree with another review I read it's more about building a franchise than the story. The cinema is so expensive nowadays I'd save your money and wait for the Blu Ray release. J.K wouldn't be in the position she's in now if that was the second potter film. But each to there own
