Better than I expected

Rating: 8/10 (8 March 2012)

'Harry Potter' acted better than he did in his previous films I must admit, this time it was magic and a pleasant surprise. I was also pleased to see the Hammer name on this film, it really did have some that old creepy hallmark.
The locations and atmosphere they conjured added significantly to the atmosphere of the film. Harry's seemingly 'acting' innocence (as an man?) worked in his favour - you felt that he was out of his depth in the story (as it should be).
Often with these types of films, you sense that there is no answer to the story, although the unfolding is good in its telling in the film, the final scenes may lack a little coherence.
Overall, I'd recommend the film without question, well directed and an entertaining Hammer Horror.
