Harry Potter and the blah blah blah

Just saw the new Harry Potter movie. It is literally the same old shit. I'm starting to realize that these movies (except for the one true great one that was Prisoner of Azkaban), are all pretty much the same. They really don't have plot and instead concern themselves with the minor minutia around the school. Who likes who, who's flirting with who, and a lot of spells stuff that seems pointless to anyone who hasn't read the book. The movie is not bad in the sense that the style and shots and color palette are all wonderful. But for three quarters of the movie there is just no plot. Harry has to get the new professor to tell him something. That's the plot. And the professor doesn't tell him until after three quarters of the movie. The ending is cool and surprising (unless you read the book), but it's just so long and effortless. It's as if they know the audience is coming, so they can literally do whatever the hell they want. And take as much time as they want with doing it. This is not a movie that has to please, like say The Hangover. There's a built in audience and they bank on that the whole qway. This movie doesn't earn any points for creativity or being different.
