The first HP movie which lives up to the book

Rating: 10/10 (11 July 2007)

I really thought that HP and the OotP was fantastic! The cast are a little more polished and it was the first time I've left an HP movie without feeling like something significant was left out - that is, this really did justice to the book.
All the ancillary characters really make a wonderful contribution to the overall story - not just one-liners here and there. Luna Lovegood's empathy for Harry's situation and the way in which she brings a lightness to the situation with her unusual perspective on life was a lovely touch, and certainly provided a sense of fun to what was undoubtedly the darkest HP movie yet.
10/10 from me.
