Harry reborns from ashes (dvd)

Rating: 7/10 (3 March 2012)

Before his lame three future movies of HP, Yates delivers at last one good movie! First, the movie benefits from the excellent story of the eponymous book. It's not that i don't like the others but after this one, HP turns into private Potter and wizardry becoming war isn't my cup of tea. Here, they are still students and it's really their last one when they look still childish. Next, there's a great addition of new characters: Evanna is as eerie as Luna and Nat/Tonks directed a very funny making-of in the extras. But only the books will give you a deep view into them because in the movie, they are only fly over. I don't forget Dolores Umbridge who teaches a good lesson for audience: bad, mean people can look sweet and gentle! The trio faces a interesting evolution as well: Harry lacks patience and shows anger while Hermione and Ron are really true friends, accepting him as he is. So, it's really about helping each other and not fighting. The production and sets are beautiful, especially the Ministry. Its gloomy and mazing architecture recalls "Brazil" and above all, the entire movie is fortunately not salvaged by a poor cinematography. In conclusion, it's a vivid, full-colored phoenix that we got there!
