I agree with Galahad; definitely the best of the three so far. If you want a slavish cramming of as many events from the novels as possible into the film, stick with the first two; if you want to see an actual Harry Potter movie, with atmosphere and artistry (as well as much better acting), go with this one.
I believe hiding effects in the dark is a stupid and cheap stratagy.
