Harry Potter and the Side Order of Fries

Rating: 2/10 (11 July 2007)

In this latest installment of the Harry Potter series the screen writer failed to read the book prior to writing the screenplay. It looks as if he opted to read the Cliff's Notes version. What was on the screen was not equal to any of the previous movies.
Simply stated it was like a side order of fries, it lacked the BEEF!.
So much of the original story is missing; 1) The lack of the Prefects 2) Sirius' Mother's Portrait 3) Dobby the House Elf 4) Revolt of the Centaurs 5) St. Mungo's Hospital 6) Quiditch (Ron as Keeper and Harry being banned)
The magic with the series has always been how true the movies were to the book. This pales in comparison.
Save your money. Read the book.
