David Yates

Rating: 3/10 (14 July 2007)

David Yates is destroying the world of Harry Potter. He sacrifices way too much important information to be the shortest Harry Potter movie there is which is what he wanted for reasons beyond my comprehension. Why would you want to take the longest and most informative book and chop it into fragments that go so quickly that you can't follow what is happening. I was one who said "you shouldn't compare it to the books because its supposed to be entertaining" but there is nothing entertaining about choppy story lines and not being able to let the death of Sirius sink. The scene was cut so short that I didn't have a moment to feel anything about it. He didn't give enough attention to the fact that Sirius was so important to Harry and that it will affect how the rest of his life will be. The fight in the Ministry was hardly given justice and was supposed to be the biggest part of the whole movie, its what everyone was excited to see. I love everything Harry Potter but I could have gone my whole life never watching this movie.
