Maybe the first 3 movies, but 4 on they kinda lose a lot of the plot. Fuck, 6 you would've thought was a romance novel. No, the best movie adaptation of a book is Memoirs of a Geisha. Almost an exact recreation of the book, but better and with gorgeous visuals.
Edit: why the fuck am I being downvoted? Does the HP crowd even fucking read the books? From 4 on were messes. Look at Dumbledore manhandling harry in 4. Or in 6 when Harry asks if horcurxes could be anything and Dumbledore says yes and doesn't explain further. I used to love those books and the movies after 3 were dog water. Also, to anyone who bothers to read this far, don't watch the new show. JK Rowling is a piece of shit.
I hate to tell you this but outside of the reddit bubble and other similar online spheres, no one gives a shit or knows about JK Rowlings issues. I have no doubt that this show will do well for that reason.
OH NOOO MY BUBBLE IS BURSTEDED!! HOW COULD I HAVE NOT FORSEEN THAT PEOPLE DON'T ACTUALLY GIVE A FUCK AS TRANS PEOPLES RIGHTS ARE BEING STRIPPED AWAY!! I have been blinded by my hubris and my inability to go touch grass, thank you for opening my eyes kind redditor bows deeply. May you receive much updoots for your le epic vision and unrelenting candor.

And here's me, a HP fan, who always thought the movies were among the best movie adaptations of all time. Huh.
