The Boy Who Lived becomes Legend

Rating: 10/10 (17 November 2005)

This film is truly remarkable. Fabulous clean edits, good use of colour, a brighter and more cheerful look than the last, but a dark story all the same. It deserves its 12a rating, as there are some scenes that even I found disturbing. Fiennes Voldemort is truly terrifying, but harder still it is to see Cedric Diggory die. Moving most of all is the scene in which Harrys parents come back to him in a beautiful vision, the moment at which my eyes watered! This film has everything- romance (cho was very well cast and Likable), edge of your seat thrills (the maze) and heart wrenching sadness. All the actors have come of age, including character Harmione who has stopped whining (appears that in this film, thats Rons job). JK will be delighted to see the book so well framed, but a word of warning to fans of the literary Potter- there's no Hogsmeade and very little Sirius... for he is star of the next movie. This installment of the saga will go down as the greatest, mark my words. Simply beautiful.
