The Most Intrinsicate Harry Potter Movie

Rating: 7/10 (15 December 2007)

And Potter Franchises loses it's magical flair. That flair that moved families to the movies to see a mildly mature spectacle, about flying wizards, magic and harmless fun.
But as the actors get older, the movies get darker. And I don't mean darker as in the sense of a city at night. I mean mentally darker, like descending in the whole, dark basement of each character. Harry has less time with Hermione and Ron, it's a play of his odyssey with Voldemort, the villain, played by a bewitching Ralph Fiennes. David Yates imposes a nice direction; a wondrous score, and fine acted villains. It's not the best Harry Potter yet; but it seems it's reaching a different maturity and enters a whole new domain, one where the leading actors are no longer kids and trouble are moved by psychological leverages, and deep emotional conflicts. Harry Potter has changed...better get used to it.
