I may  get banned for saying this, but I was so irritated at the liberties
they  took with Umbridge that she grated on me the entire movie.  She is  so
particularly described as "frog-like" and wearing an Alice Band (a hair  band
for those US types that never saw the Tennille drawings for Alice  in
Wonderland!).  


You are right about that--but it was so long since I had read the book that  
I had forgotten all about the description of her.  I have to admit, she  
wasn't what I would have chosen, but I thought it was an interesting  
interpretation all the same.  
 
And at 138 minutes, the movie was quite long enough.  You can't do a  700 
page book as one movie without cutting something.  And if each book was  made 
into 3 movies, well, that is 21 films, in all, isn't it?
