When will HW learn?

Rating: 4/10 (19 November 2001)

The movie pretty much ruined the good feeling I got from the book. The first three quarters of the HP was well-acted, well-directed and well-effected (sfx). The remaining fourth took a nose dive into cheap HW gimmicks and cheesy computer effects. The centaur (only one in the movie) looked so unreal and laughable, as did the finale with the two-faced Prof. Quirrel Overall: long, empty, disappointing.
