Intriguing After the 2nd or 3rd Watch

Rating: 8/10 (18 August 2016)

When I first saw this installment, I had trouble following the story. But after watching it the second or third time, it makes more sense. Also, on the first watch through, I was bored by midpoint, however, the next time I viewed the film, it wasn't so bad.
It's definitely hard to follow, but if you watch the films in succession, it becomes easier. The story is very imaginable and wittily funny, with Kenneth Branagh as Professor Gilderoy Lockhart. Essentially, this installment is underrated.
Chris Columbus did a great job directing, as he did on the first Harry Potter. And Alan Rickman was great again, as Snape. It's really interesting to watch Snapes story unfold alongside Harry's.
