Scarier with lots of details

Rating: 9/10 (4 June 2004)

Much darker than two previous, I would keep small kids at home. The action is intense in spots and the dementors will probably scare lots of folks.
There are a few liberties taken with the story line, but a surprising amount of material was included. If you haven't read the book, some of the info will definitely pass you by, but not to worry - just read the book!
There is rich detail in the scenery. You get to see a lot more of the portal paintings, the inside of Hogwart's and the shops in Hogsmead. There are also many more outdoors shots, and the interior and exterior of the Dursley's home.
You have to see (Professor) Snape in a dress!
