Damn art films

Rating: 3/10 (10 March 2005)

I hate the new direction. Harry Potter is supposed to be MOSTLY for kids. But now movie 3 has become an artsy-fartsy German indie film. I hate that; there were too many shadows and the black-out was way over-used. I mean, there ARE other screen transitions.
Kudos to Michael Gambin for trying to fill Richard Harris' shoes though; even in sickness, that's a hard act to follow.
Plus Alan Rickman wasn't in it nearly enough. His thirty seconds at the head table, then the cross-dressing incident, and then in the cabin...not enough sexiness for me. I'd really rather watch the first two, where you can see his brilliant acting and his...snarky sexiness.
