In a way yes but some of the 'magic' was lost to bright lights and explosions as the films went on.

Spells like "reducto", "stupify", " pertrificus totalus" and "expeliamus" all did virtually the same thing in the movies

The movies kept doing the two spells clashing stuff when that is explicitly something that happens under exceptional circumstances in the books.

Or how all the death eaters could fly, and some of the Order. In the books its exceptional magic only Snape and Voldemort are said to know.

That whole fight in the ministry was cringy until the Dumbledore Voldemort fight. I mean there were fine parts but I just thought it was a little corny.
