The movies are awesome if you like them, and crappy if you don't.
I know that sounds obvious, but there really isn't an easier way to describe how they are.
Read the book, then watch the movie. The book is perfectly paced, and thus far, the movies have been anything but. They're glorious, but I've always seen them as more of an appendix/reference of sorts to the actual Harry Potter series. You should watch them, and they will be enjoyable, but the real treat is the book series.
