Just saw it last night, and I must say it is definitly my favorite of the three. Cuaron did an excellent job directing and getting the actors to actually do some acting. As for the comments about people not reading the books getting confused by the plot, I had no problem with it. I dunno, maybe it's my experience trying to figure out movies such as Mullholland Drive, but I didn't find it confusing in the least, and I've never touched a Potter book. I also enjoyed the little homage to Y Tu Mama Tambien, I couldn't help but laugh out loud at that in the theatre, I think I got several weird looks. Overall great film, 4 stars.
