Harry Potter

Rating: 6/10 (11 July 2007)

Harry Potter series is quite popular for teenagers and adults too. It became live-action which is great. The first movie, Harry Potter and the Philosopher's stone, is not very good as the fantasy is quite mild but as the series go on, from a PG rating to a PG-13 rating, it is getting more darker. This movie is the newest Harry Potter movie, passing on to the fifth year for Harry Potter in Hogwarts and Voldemort is back, finally gets to show magic powers. There too are new characters as for Dolores Umbridge, Bellatrix Lestrange, a new villain and Lunna Lovegood. With all these new characters, Harry Potter will have face more difficulties. Harry Potter movies are just the short version of the long-pages books. For me, I prefer to watch than reading long stories.
The movies are getting better, with more darker tone and more serious looks, this movie can never go wrong with teenagers and adults if they like dark movies. This will definitely have darker tone compared to the other Harry Potter movies. Then soon, as the series move on, it will be quite dark with different directors with different ideas. I will have to see how this go on.
It is not that bad, it is just a bit too short. There is not much action to it. Oh yeah, I forgot, Harry Potter is mainly a theme for frightening scenes not some big action. Well then, you can't expect some exploding things, if you want that, go and watch Transformers. Harry Potter proves to be more darker. Now, he loses his cool and shouts back, now he wants revenge. Harry Potter is growing up. It is not the timid boy you once knew. The last fight is disappointing. Once again, you are dealing with magic not big action.
You will probably get some shock if you watch it in cinema and also there is some suspense. So if your kids are afraid, don't bring them. You should know Harry Potter movies are increasingly dark.
