harry potter; year 2

Rating: Null/10 (29 July 2003)

After a wonderful introduction produced by the first movie, i was a bit dissapointed to see very little improvement in almost every area. Granted i do enjoy reading the books written by JK rowling but i am a little shocked at what it seems to have very little effort to capture the true identity of each charater. I personally think its not necessarly the actors and actress's fault but more the script let them down by not being more about all the characters ( even the minor ones). The movie tends to revolve around harry,ron and hermoine and yes they are the main charaters but i feel that some of the minor characters need to be shown more so we can learn more about them. For example, our two practical jokers Fred and George weasly. allowing them to have more lines would definetly spice up the movie a bit. Also Ginny weasly, she is becoming more of a character who's not quite so shy but kind of a bad girl inside and i hope in the future movies we see this side come out. Also Lee Jordan, he is a funny joker to since he hangs around w/the twins and finally neville longbottom. I feel that the tension between the houses are exposed a little to much as well. Other than that it has promise and it is rather entertaining for all you HP fans.
