My favorite HP movie, by far

Rating: 10/10 (13 July 2007)

This was an excellent film in all aspects, and not just because I am a hardcore Harry Potter fan. First off, the acting was superb, and you can easily see how all the actors have grown to make the characters their own. David Yates did a great job capturing the darkness of the 5th book without drowning us in unhappiness. The cinematography was absolutely fantastic. Though a few scenes which I thought very important were left out, the movie effectively covered the book without dragging along and without jumping from one event to the other. Daniel Radcliffe did a great job portraying Harry's disgust, misery, and hope. What I loved most about his movie were the relationships between the characters, and how even when we were about to witness a story-altering and epic scene (the kiss and the battle!!), the way they interacted with one another still made us laugh. I highly recommend this movie to everyone, the die-hard fanatics and those just looking for some entertainment. It's got a little something for everyone.
