Saw it at the Kabuki yesterday. I thought it was great, many fine touches. I did not mind the plot change, at least it was Cho spilling the beans because of veritaserum and not plain nastiness. And I did not really miss all the sub-plot that was axed, because I had such a hard time with the book, the movie sped along at a nice clip.
Love Staunton as Umbridge, loved the heavy victorian furniture in her rooms, and the cat plates were just awesome.
I also like Gwarp, not as fierce, but much more cute than in the book.
Shows what a week, and the day of book 7 release will do for the crowds at the movie, maybe 30 people in the theater.
