Very good, but better editing could have made it much better.

Rating: 7/10 (23 November 2005)

A superb 4th movie here. Darker and more scary than the previous three, but it could have been so much better.
There are several places throughout the film where comments are made that seem to make no sense, obviously because a preceeding scene has been cut. Hopefully this will be sorted in the DVD release.
So much of the book has been cut though, and several things that occur in future books have been overlooked (How are they going to blackmail Reeter Skeeter in the next film, when in this one her secret isn't revealed?) In future, and especially The Order of the Phoenix, they MUST do it in 2 films to preserve the great story, rather than cutting half the book as they do in this one.
Overall though, another good film, worth the wait.
