Not the happiest of films...

Rating: 6/10 (6 August 2019)

The series really starts getting dark now... Harry is "touchy", loosing his temper and not knowing why (hey, he's a teen!). Dolores Umbridge is highly disturbing, which means Imelda Staunton did a good job with the character. But the feeling of the film is depressing...
If you like bad guys, there are lots of them in this one. Even Robert Hardy's Fudge character is a meany this time. I don't know why Hardy's scenes were always so short, you only got a whiff of him. A bit more Snape in this one. Mark William's hairpiece is awful this go-around, not sure what's up with that one!
The loss of the fun and mystical sets adds to the depressing feel of the film. And we haven't even got to the REALLY depressing parts of the Potter timeline yet!
