Harry PotterMania

I watched Harry Potter The Order of the Phoenix at Cineworld yesterday...I'm not usually a Potter fan (I've only seen one of the four films, this is my second now), I haven't read any of the books (yet) and am definitely not familiar with the story! All I understand is that he's a boy with wizardry powers right? studies at Hogwarts School Of Witchcraft And Wizardry and contends with an evil resurrected Lord Voldemort, Correct? :)

In ``Order of the Phoenix,'' Harry Potter's world of wizards is divided between those who believe the evil Lord Voldemort has returned and others in denial. Harry, played by Daniel Radcliffe, teaches young friends played by Emma Watson and Rupert Grint the skills a wizard needs for self-defense.

Go see the film, I defin' enjoyed it, some bits were scary though, quite a dark and dramatic film. Funny, thrilling and, yes, somewhat enchanting...There were kids around 8/9 and I actually thought some of the scenes were scary so it was surprsing the little spuds (kiddies) weren't crying!! The special effects here will have you reclining in your seat, admiring the spectacle. Unfortunately, the film's pedestrian pacing won't get you on the edge of it - the whole story really drags on and on. It takes an awfully long time to get going, I haven't seen many Daniel Radcliffe's films but he's definitely very talented!!
