Alas! The fifth Harry Potter film has arrived. The time is long past that this can be considered a simple “children’s” series–though children and adults alike will enjoy it immensely. Starting off from the dark and tragic ending of the fourth film, Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix begins in a somber and angst-filled tone that carries through the entire 138 minutes (the shortest of any HP movie despite being adapted from the longest book). Hopes of winning the Quidditch Cup have been replaced by woes like government corruption, distorted media spin, and the casualties of war. As the themes have matured, so have the primary characters’ acting abilities. Ron (Rupert Grint), Hermione (Emma Watson), and especially Harry (Daniel Radcliffe) are more convincing than ever–in roles that are more demanding.
Harry is deeply traumatized from having witnessed Cedric Diggory’s murder, but he will soon find that this was just another chapter in the continuing loss he will endure. Lord Voldemort (Ralph Fiennes) has returned and, in an attempt to conceal this catastrophe from the wizarding public, the Ministry of Magic has teamed up with the wizard newspaper The Daily Prophet to smear young Potter and wise Dumbledore (Michael Gambon)–seemingly the only two people in the public eye who believe the Dark Lord has returned. With no one else to stand against the wicked Death Eaters, the Hogwarts headmaster is forced to revive his secret anti-Voldemort society, the Order of the Phoenix. This welcomes back characters like Mad-Eye Moody (Brendan Gleeson), kind Remus Lupin (David Thewlis), fatherly Sirius Black (Gary Oldman), and insidious Severus Snape (Alan Rickman), and introduces a short list of intriguing new faces. In the meantime, a semi-psychotic bureaucrat from the Ministry (brilliantly portrayed by Imelda Staunton) has seized power at Hogwarts, and Harry is forced to form a secret society of his own–lest the other young wizards at his school be left ill-equipped to defend themselves in the looming war between good and evil. In addition, Harry is filled with an inexplicable rage that only his Godfather Sirius seems to be able to understand.
This film, though not as frightening as its predecessor, earns its PG-13 rating mostly because of the ever-darkening tone. As always, the loyal fans of J.K. Rowling’s books will suffer huge cuts from the original plot and character developments, but make no mistake: this is a good movie. –Jordan Thompson

I really enjoy ordering products from Amazon. I enjoyed this movie very much. It was delivered to me in about three days. I also like to be able to order products in advance before they are published.

- Sent back, but never replaced
I received an odd version of the DVD - it could not be played on either our Mac, or our PC. It wobbled in the Mac, and kept stopping in the PC. We’ve had no problems with DVD’s since. When I called up to complain, the sender very respectfully offered to replace it.
However, I sent it back a few weeks ago and have received neither replacement nor explanation. Maybe there was an oversight, but whatever it was, I never got to watch the movie.

I love Sci-Fi, Wizards, and Adventure stories like Harry Potter, Star Wars, and Complex adventures like Indiana Jones and the Hunt for Red October (Tom Clancey). They take to places I have never been away from my dull existence. I can’t wait to see the next Harry Potter, The Half-Blood Prince!
Product received in good condition within a week . Thanks!

- Harry realizes how fear of evil’s return acts as rot upon even the best of intentions
That age-old method by which a viewer or reader dismisses an interpretative form of art–based upon the superiority of its alter-ego–has personally always mystified me, as comparing a book to a movie seems inherently illogical. The internal monologue character’s have with themselves can never be adequately transmitted onto the silver screen without extending the movie to a running time of several days. Likewise, facial expressions and nuances of body language portrayed by actors can only be transferred … Read More
