Recommendations
Whether you’re a die-hard fan or a newbie, you’ll find the Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix to be a thrilling adventure. There’s a lot to enjoy about this film, including some dark themes, a brief romance, and an exciting battle with Lord Voldemort. It also raises some serious concerns for the franchise going forward.
The first thing you’ll notice about the film is that it’s darker than the previous three Potter films. Harry Potter has to face a growing resentment of the wizarding world’s authority, especially when his friends do not feel ready to fight with him. The movie also shows Harry as an adolescent and struggles with self-control and pride.
Another aspect to consider is that the film has more emphasis on character development. While there are a few nice moments here, it’s clear that Rowling is attempting to develop themes of friendship, humility, and loyalty. Rather than focus on the “Quidditch game” sequences, the movie focuses on the struggles of Harry’s friends.
The film also has moments of redemption. Harry Potter learns that his friends are not all bad, and his spirit is lifted by his relationship with Luna Lovegood. His friends also rescue him from a smear campaign against him. He and Dumbledore inform as many people as they can of Voldemort’s return.
The movie does have some great moments, such as the first kiss between Harry and Hermione, the first battle with Voldemort, and the magical scenes of the Deathly Hallows part 2. However, there were also many scenes that did not live up to the book’s expectations.
Another thing to keep in mind is the film’s pacing. Many scenes felt drawn out or disjointed. This could be a problem with any Harry Potter movie, but it’s particularly noticeable in the fifth film.
The movie also has a lot of cliffhangers. The first one involves the Dementors attacking Harry’s cousin, Dudley Dursley. The second one continues the story of the Dementor attack.
While the film may not be the best of the five, it’s definitely a great adventure. It teaches some important lessons about love, friendship, and life.
