Hog--WHAT?

Rating: 5/10 (10 December 2005)

Hermione is coming along just fine, I daresay, yet the lads seem to have crossed the threshold to the awkward years. Now, objectively this is a failed film: narratively distracted, uneven, disjointed, careless, and very very vague. Like, what ever happened to that stiff in the woods? Oops! Lost that particular thread.
Yet, how many objective minds are there out there? Who has not been pulled under the spell of the books? Themselves, no great masterpieces, yet at this moment of time, unrivaled in the bestselling world. And so they are supplemental to the books. The movies that is. They do not stand on their own, or certainly at least this installment and the immediate last did not. This is for Potterheads alone and not for amateurs.
So, what did we like, anyway? Well, don't you just love it when someone raves how real it was? How real the dragon, was! Ha! And did like the introductory marches by the respective rivaling European schools of witchcraft and wizardry? Or is it wizardry and witchcraft? Humph.
And did like. . . oh what does it matter anymore... I'm hungry!
