Brilliant!

Rating: 10/10 (10 December 2005)

I went into Gof expecting a treat and what i saw was a whole lot more. Wow, this movie was brilliant. The gangly 11 year olds we saw in the first movie have grown up, Daniel Radcliffe is blooming into a bloody good-looking boy. Emma is gorgeous too, while Ron maintains that same cheeky humor and I found some of the most funny scenes were the ones mainly focusing on Ron.
My one main complaint is the fact that they missed the Rita Skeeter animagus scene, as that scene is a key point in book five when they have to blackmail her to write in the Quibbler. It will be difficult to navigate around that now.
My father and I were in hysterics when Ron comes in completely pale after asking out Fluer ("and... she was walking and... i like how they walk.... and then she turned away, and.... i saw her from the back... they look nice from the back.. and i asked her out...") and when Ginny says "well, he screamed it at her, it was quite disturbing actually." And the study scene hall was brilliant too. I like the fact that maxine is actually /taller/ than Hagrid, i imagined in the other way around in the book, did i miss some information there? It's a bit of a shame that Ron swears that one time as that single word ruled out an entire audience, but hey.
All in all that was truly a 'magic' movie, spectacular special effects nd the suspense is masterful.
