9/10
the forth and best
24 November 2005
Being a bit of a potter fan i was kind of waiting for this with baited breath. One reason for this being the tri wizard cup, wanting to see it transfered from page to screen is a must see. Another reason being that the third, the prisoner of azkerban was my favourite book in the series but a bit of a disappointment as a film. This film does not. It excites everyone, from child to adult. If I had any negative comments it would be that the film does miss a lot out of the book but what do you expect seeing the book has about 700 pages. Also rupert grint is still up to his over the top face poses, but hey never mind. Mike newell does an excellent job at directing this, dark chapter in the series. And when i mean dark, i mean dark, this is far to scary a film for youngsters and even has a certain sexual chemistry building between its characters as their obviously going through puberty. The effects are brilliant and the acting is great, but even though Gambon is flawless in is version of dumbledore, I can't help but miss Richard Harris.This is the best of the film series so far and I feel that it will be better than the next as nothing much happens in the order of the phoenix until the last chapter. Bring on the rest though, as potter is most likely the greatest magical adventure series of our lifetime
