"Potter" Movies Only Get Better

Rating: 8/10 (18 August 2007)

Previous reviews of this film were heavy on criticism of certain themes being removed from the film. It is important to note that J.K. Rowling has a heavy say in what is put into the movie and what is removed. That being said, one can safely remove all disappointment as it was not a Hollywood decision.
Emma Watson, Daniel Radcliffe, and Rupert Grint all turn out incredible performances and show enormous growth in their acting skills. The special effects dance across the screen, and colors dazzle you.
The relationships development in this film are one of the greatest attributes. Characters are clearly drawing lines in the sand and choosing sides as should be expected from implications in the previous movie. The overall plot really begins to heat up here and folks will not be disappointed.
Of the 5 films, I mark this one as my favorite. The action heats up and the plot thickens. A great film.
