| Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix - 9/10 Probably the most "stand-out" of the Potter series, this one is so different from the others in terms of direction, style, and writing (though of course the new director and screenwriter can explain that). The whole movie felt rushed to hell, but I still enjoyed it and was compelled the whole way through. And if this wasn't a Potter movie, I'd even go as far to say Imelda Staunton deserved a oscar nom....but like I said...It's a Harry Potter movie (and I'm pulling for Ellen Page in An American Crime anyway so the less competition the better!) Not my favorite of the series, but definitely the most different, and very, very good. And did anyone else immediately look for the soundtrack after seeing the movie? Some of the tracks were brilliant. |
