Not at all magical!

Rating: 5/10 (11 July 2007)

I arrived at the special imax screening of this movie at 3a.m. well before time-at 1a.m.There was already a big crowd gathered.Not to watch the movie but to get the best seats in the house for this was a so called 3D presentation.I only found out after i got my ticket that only the last 20mins of the movie was the 3D part.But was it worth watching the rest o the movie for this bit??I don't think so. Weak performances all round and the most noticeable fact was the total lack of music throughout the movie.I was always able to hear someone eating their popcorn or slurping on their soda and thats when i realised this little oddity.The only good thing bout the movie was that it was not too long and has been edited well.The special effects leave much to be desired.All in all it was just an average movie from which i didn't expect much and i guess it pretty much lived up to the expectation.Nothing big releasing for a while now i guess.Transformers and 300 have definitely been Hollywood's high points this year(yet to watch ratatouille). Let me just make this one thing clear.The only reason i'm giving this movie a 5 is because i gave spiderman 3 a 3on10 and HP was definitely better than spiderman3. Its not worth wasting the dough on the imax 3D screening cos there isn't anything great.I don't recommend the movie but its still OK if there's no other movie to watch.
