The Rebellion Begins.Harry Potter--- it was supposed to be the movie of the summer. Supposed to be. ... I kinda see why it lost to Transformers. I wouldn't say I'm HP's #1 fan, but.. still quite nuts over it, haha. (Planning to go at 6am to pick up the book, wheee. xD) Aaand let's just say this was kind of a disappointment. Maybe it's cos the movie shouldn't be compared with the book. To me, it was like, a few different scenes all bunched up together. Something was missing. The plot didn't floww. Or maybe it's the characters. Draco Malfoy didn't have more than 2 lines in the show.. I looved Luna Lovegood though. xPP.. Umbridge was just plain annoying.. but in an amusing way. Zzz.. I still think that people who haven't read the book would enjoy it better cos you wouldn't know what to expect.-Although jou does have a point about how people who've read the book would understand it better.-Mm.. they cut out a lot of parts. It's like chopping off an arm and a leg. In the book, there was this part where Harry got to find out more about his dad even though he initially thought that his dad was some sort of a jerk, after having a peek at Snape's schoolboy memories. For some reason, I liked that part. But did they include that? Nooo. They just included the part where Harry accidentally broke into Snape's memory bank. Then after that? Nothing. Zip. Nada.  Maybe I'm just too much of a critic. You should still go watch it for yourself cos I mean, it's Harry Potter we're talking about here. x) Ooh, and I'm gonna see the 3D version of it on Saturday. Maybe it'll have a better impact on me... maybe. I have decided not to put anymore memorable quotes.. might count as a spoiler. (according to chernyao, it does, haha.) Overall grade: C+. (I'm probably gonna get a lot of jeers for giving such a low grade.. xPP) On the plus side, it was quite funny. Maybe not the LOL ROFL kinda 'haha' but.. at least it wasn't totally dark like everyone said it would be. There, that's something good right? =D Countdown to Harry Potter and the D.H.: 10 more days. |
