A good movie

Rating: 1/10 (24 November 2005)

The newest Harry Potter movie will not disappoint the Potter fans. I am not a fan of Harry Potter, nor do I dislike the franchise. Still, I would like to give my comments about this movie and the more than 5000 people who gave it a 10.
Do not expect excellent acting performances from any of the actors. They did a good job but Daniel Radcliffe is not on par with his friends Emma Watson and Rupert Grint. The latter two have a better facial expression and seem to feel more at home on the set. I was glad to see that Ralph Fiennes had the role of Voldemort even though he was on the screen for less than 5 minutes.
The special effects were quite good. I expected them to be a little bit better since we are in late 2005. Movies like Lord of the Rings and Sin City are prettier in that aspect.
I may have the facial expression of a stone but when a joke is funny I will laugh. I did not laugh more than 1 time throughout the entire movie. Yes, Ron did succeed in making a grin on my face a couple of times but I was still disappointed. In my opinion the movie lacked some serious action. I am not talking about XXX or James Bond type of thing but some scenes were to slow. Now, you can interpret the next sentence in a few ways and you can even call me a little boy but: the only thing that made my heart beat faster was Fleur Delacour in her bathing suit.
This movie was not a waste of money, none of the Potter movies are, but it is in no way worth the perfect 10. For those who voted a 10, would you rate Schindler's list or the Godfather a 15?
