Is the Casting of the HP movies good?

Well, the casting is actually NOT GOOD (I'm referring to a few characters only) coz in the books, Harry is not good looking but Daniel Radcliffe is, and Hermione is not pretty too in the book but Emma Watson is. Katie Leung as Cho Chang and Bonnie Wright as Ginny are just okay, meaning there could be someone better than them. If they could have chosen someone more pretty than Bonnie, that's good coz in my opinion, Bonnie and Daniel don't look perfect as a couple in the movies. But then, somehow, Bonnie's appearance is the same as how Ginny was described in the books, so Bonnie is okay for the role too. It's Daniel who don't look the same as Harry in the story.. LOL.If they chose another boy to play as Harry instead of Daniel, Bonnie could have been perfect for the role.

When Emma was younger, she looked also perfect for the role of Hermione. She had bushy hair just like how she was described in the first book. But then she grew up to be so beautiful that her bushy her as described in the books was gone. I wish they were consistent about this.

Daniel looked perfect in the first film but then he grew up to be very handsome while Harry in the book was just described as an ordinary looking boy who looks underfed, meaning he is so thin, from the beginning of the story up to the last. I wish they were consistent about this too.

On the other hand, Rupert Grint is perfect for the role of Ron. Rupert got taller each year which is just the same as Ron in the books who always get taller too every summer. Seamus and Dean, Luna and Neville were played by actors who look similarly to them. As well as the professors, the members of the order, people from the ministry, and the death eaters were well casted.

I know that it's not Daniel and Emma's fault to grow up as good looking as they are now, but I hope that the Harry Potter management did something to make both of them still look like the characters they are portraying. As a reader and a HP fanatic, I want to see on the big screen what I've read from the books.

ya they should use "make up" or something..
After all hollywood is known for coolest make ups.
And i dont think voldemort is also shown in the book.

The movies are also getting boring.
May be they should try to bring back Chris Columbus.
