It wasn't there. And when I saw it, I was speechless. Why on Earth should the Death Eaters destroy The Burrow at that point? So much for Voldemort keeping a low profile! Anyway, I didn't like the movie: as Gazzoid put it, "the character hormones" were too much emphasized by the script, in a way that reminded me more of a teen drama than Harry Potter. I don't have anything against teen dramas, and in fact I watch and enjoy many of them, but this kind of tone sounds to me utterly wrong when applied to the Harry Potter's universe.

At least, the movie is visually stunning and the musical score really great. All in all, I would say 5.5/10
