"Porthos dreams of being a bear, and you want to shatter those dreams by saying he’s just a dog? What a horrible candle-snuffing word. That’s like saying, “He can’t climb that mountain, he’s just a man”, or “That’s not a diamond, it’s just a rock.” Just." ~Finding Neverland

I am biased about the movie. It was *nice* but it was not really a HP movie for me. If they would have changed all the names it would have been a nice teenie love-mystery thingie. For me it felt as if they skipped all plot-relevant Hogwarts stuff that was important for the whole story arc. Ah, well. The books ale ALL better than the movies.
Okay, the fourth was the big exception, that one was really nice. Hm, I'm not that into Twilight to say that, but what I have heard, yeah, mybe. Close to it. Maybe not that kitschy. I read the first Twilight book and did not really like it - too much cheesy romance and glittering vampires even for me who likes unearthly beautiful characters. But, heck, glittering vampires? Glittering? Bwuaahhhahahaha. last week I went roleplaying with freinds and while playing/storytelling, the Dungeon Master gave me a little piece of paper, saying that my character was noticing a very strange guy whose skin had an unearthly... shimmer. I nearly fell of the sofa because I was close to dying by laughing. OMG. I looked at her, screaming. "Edwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaard", and she gave me a very embarassed and pitiful look. I forgot for a secon that she's a sucker for Twilight. Ahum. Not my best move ever.
If you cut out the werewolf and remake the shrieking shack szene AND find me another actor for Remus (or at least make this one shave that moustache), I'd agree. No, I like the third movie, but Remus doesn't look like Remus for me. he looks too clean and too old in the movie, and definitely not so worn-out as he's described in the books.
Ah, I've come to accept Remus. I can distinguish between film and book pretty well, which I guess helps. They're not trying to depicture MY Remus, so I'm okay with it :-)
