I agree with the people who think Tom Felton stole the movie.
He did and I was so thrilled.
Hero Fiennes-Tiffin was an absolutely brilliant piece of casting for Tom Riddle. Not only does he have exactly the same eyes as his uncle (which, let's face it, is one of the few recognizable things about Voldemort's face), but he pulled off the creepy entitled kid vibe fantastically well.
I had no idea about the casting! I definitely agree that it really worked.
The people I went to see the film with weren't impressed with Ginny, but I actually felt that Ginny in the films makes me root for Harry/Ginny a hundred times more than the Ginny in the books. And again, I think a lot of that is just the acting, because it's not like they gave her character a lot to do.
I agree with both of these opinions -- Ginny isn't very impressive in the movies, but she's tons better than she was in the books. By this time in the book universe, I hated Ginny, whereas I feel a sort of bland appreciation for the movie!Ginny, and the same goes for the H/G relationship.
