The slow build begins

Rating: 5/10 (18 August 2013)

This was my least favourite book of the series as it only really acts as a long winded build up to what happens later but happily what new director David Yates has done is to turn that original source material into a worthy addition to the film saga.
This film is dark, it's funny and importantly it tells it's own complex story of Harry realising that he alone cannot fight the dark lord. From the leads to the always excellent support this film moves along at a quick pace and shows a different side to the characters we have seen grown up on screen.
However it is a long film with only the last half an hour being what you would call action packed but once it all kicks off it makes for a thrilling conclusion.
