Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix
Steph and I finaly got the chance to go to the movies tonight to see Harry Potter. We're both really big fans of the books, and we also enjoy what they've done with the film adaptations. Unlike the last movie, I really felt this time the pacing was far better. In the last movie, The Goblet of Fire, I really thought it was so rushed, that the entire movie went by in a flash. This time it seemed they hit all the important points, and there was a lot of subtlety there that those of us who read the book could really pick up on. Ever notice how Ginny looked at Cho Chang whenever they were in the same scene? Stuff like that, while they didn't spend time on in the films, is really helped by these subtle things. I also thought the magical battles were amazing. Up to this point, you really didn't see anything like that in the other films. This time, we had actual adult wizards battling, and the results were spectacular. Needless to say, we both enjoyed it very much. Great movie!
