I loved Hermione in the book AND in the film - I thought she was adorable. And you had to know going in that things were going to have to be omitted, just because there's only so much time to do things. When I saw it in the theater I sat for awhile and counted the things omitted, but if you just focus on what they don't do, you miss all the great stuff that they did do. I mean it's only a movie, after all. It got the feeling and spirit of the book, which is the most important thing of all.

Virgin Suicides the movie is a little different from the book, but both are pretty good.
