It Disapoints

Rating: 6/10 (18 November 2005)

Can't they keep the characters the same from one film to another? A gruff Dumbledore, joking McGonagall, and the Three Kids have been washed down to be just silly. Maybe it's the English Humor coming from the new director. This film is too far a field from the others for me. I know... Take it on it's own merits. But there must be some kind of through line between them all, don't you think? Each film can't be shifted so drastically from one set of characters and Hogwarts settings to another! This movie is almost like it was made in a parallel universe/sound stage! Maybe I'm missing something. And don't EVEN get me started on the music!
