Good Points

The special effects seemed particularly dazzling with this film and as ever, it remained pretty loyal to the book. As a fanatical reader who gets VERY annoyed when they change films from the book for no apparent reason, I have no cause for complaint with this film. Where it detracts from the book, it is only by omission and I can live with that!


Bad Points

I agree with "thepaladin" about Harris as Dumbledore. Unfortunately he just does not match "my" Dumbledore either, but I guess that is a personal thing and many viewers will not be sitting there evaluating his likeness to their imagination! Whilst I am not sure where more editing could have occurred, it did seem particularly long and the cinema seats are just not comfortable enough to deal with parked backsides for any huge length of time...


General Comments

A great film, definitely not to be missed by any Potter fan. Wear comfortable pants though and go to the loo before the film starts as its long, but you won't want to miss a bit!

    Great review, I've not seen the film yet but it's nice to hear that a fan would think that the film represented the book well. Which would you say was your favourite HP movie?

    OOh, has to be the first! Remember thinking that the kids acting was pretty wooden but for me, that film, as with the books, is the best. That said, the last book in my opinion was the second best so I can't wait and see what they do with the last film!
