Good, but hoping for better

Rating: 7/10 (7 June 2004)

This is a good movie...but I really was hoping for it to be AMAZING...I think that Cuaron takes a bit too much liberties, especially in the way he has changed Hogwarts, and he cuts some parts that would have slowed the pace down a bit but that are really important...(Harry's patronus shape...who wrote the map...how Sirius knew that Pettigrew was at Hogwarts...Ron & Hermione that don't talk to each other for a while...). Anyway, has I say the movie is good, sometimes extremely good other times less; the kids are growing well in their roles, the choice for Dumbledor is adequate (even if he will always be Richard Harris in my mind), and the new professors also are well choose (especially Lupin)...so let's wait for the fourth one!!!!!!W HP!!!!!!
