I also miss a lot of the opening broomstick scene - there's so much more detail in the book, but considering the length of the movie and that action sequences don't add much to plot, I can see why they left it out.
I think that change was made more for filming limitations. A car chase in the sky is kind of awkward to make on film, and a tad hard to follow for the watcher. Hell, that scene where they were getting chased by Snatchers was hard to follow.
I raged at all the inaccuracies. There were no peacocks in Lucius' yard. Yaxley wasn't with Snape at the beginning. They completely cut out Ted and Nymphadora. The sky chase was completely changed, it would've owned to see Stan Shunpike and the disarming giving him away. Hedwig giving him away was... sort of weird, I dunno. Lupin was reduced to a minor character. They didn't disguise Harry at the wedding. They never said "Voldemort" after Apparating to the coffee shop, so Dolohov and Rowle shouldn't have been able to find them. Harry was supposed to find Regulus' room. Kreacher was supposed to be given the locket, after which point he started respecting Harry. Harry didn't take and "bury" Moody's eye. I'm pretty sure the sword was buried in a pool on the other side of a cliff, but I'm not sure on that. Harry never cast Protego to break up Ron and Hermione (I could care less, though). What was that dancing scene about? The destruction of the locket was... interesting. The part where the whole "snatchers" thing happened was inaccurate, since the snatchers only found them after they broke their protection after saying "Voldemort". Wormtail was supposed to strange himself because of the magical debt he owed Harry, they weren't supposed to stun him. The Hermione torture scene was also... interesting. The scene where Bellatrix killed Dobby owned. I went to see it with 15 other people, we were in a theatre. At least three of us said "COMMANDO PRO"
