Saw the movie last night - I have to say David Yates (You little daft twat!) have
alot to answer for. It was butchered to the point of being
incoherent if you didn't read the book and if you're thinking that this movie is going to explain things, well you will be utterly disappointed. Its like watching the movie @ x24 speed, on a carousel with a donkey tied to your ass while a carrot is being jammed down your throat.
Everything from characters to plots had more holes in them than your regular Swiss cheese; cheap Swiss Cheese with great packaging. Maybe the true intension is try and flog the book for what its worth (hype) and because it is so badly done, you'd be annoyed enough to pick the book up wondering why everyone is so potty about Potter. Of course, it was far too intelligent for the film-makers to mention in the movie that Umbridge had sent the dementors in the first place. Huh? Where did the pensieve go - did the Director read the book? Pricks!
The CGI is no better than previous offerings but the confrontation sequence is worth a mention. I guess they wanted a PG rating - there was hardly any blood, gore nor death. With death-eaters everywhere how can there be no death? Ministry of Magic...not so magical.
The only actor that stayed in character was Ron while Hermoine looked 'pretty' much constipated as always and Harry well Harry is still just plain Harry. Too many random snipets and characters being flung left, right and centre with inconsistent book to screen plots left me unsettled!! Who is Luna Lovegood, Nymphadora Tonks arrggghh!!! Why the exorcist moment in the end? What the hell?
Hello!? That inner child with an IQ of 180 requires better convincing than that especially when bare-all Equus Radcliffe is really going for it in SOHO these days full-frontal.
The plus side of things : Gary Oldman is still a spunk.

I'm going to share now that I've never seen any of the movies or read the books. :-( My roommate has the books. Not sure if I'll watch the movies or read the book. I'll let you know.
