A Disapointment

Rating: 4/10 (12 April 2003)

*** Contains some spoilers***
When making a film about children, its best to let children act the parts, and in the first Harry Potter film, the child actors were perfect for their roles. Unfortunatly the producers waited a little too long before making the second one and so all of the kids now look and sound a lot older than the characters they are suppose to be playing and most of them now suck at their roles anyways. While i think that the adult actors filled their roles well, the new characters have almost NO development besides a slightly brooding musical tone when they appear. Another point against it is that script was very cheesy you cant get a grip on whats really happening until the end when everything is explained in a good minute! It would have been a lot better if there was more subelty to this film instead of the blantent actions of the characters. I will say that the special effects are quite good but cannot save it. So all in all this movie is a one shot deal and i dont suggest seeing it anymore after that
a lowly 3/10
