Absolutely awful movie

I was shopping for blurays these days and came across this film. Since I enjoy Harry Potter (have even read 3 of the books) I decided to pick it up.

Jesus fucking christ. How does this get positive reviews on respectable websites?

The characters are all (without exception) boring and annoying. The CGI is horrible. The connections to HP are idiotic at best.

Am I the only one on this wagon? I would like to see people argue in favor of this movie. Maybe I missed something...

I agree and the execution scene was absurd. Apparently the HP world is run by dictators who execute people for almost no reason and without trial.
The whole movie was annoying. I can't think of anything positive to say about it.

No decent visuals?

Yes it is very bad which is funny considering how easy it would have been to make a good story.

I just watched it. It was ok but gawd I hated the Tina character. She was so useless. And why are wizards so threatened by muggles? Wizards can rebuild and destroy cities!!
