At midnight, 'Harry Potter' impresses

"Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix" is definitely a movie that you want to see, even if you are a casual viewer like me.

I went to a midnight showing today, despite having never read a book about Harry Potter and his Hogwarts wizard cronies. But the special effects in the movies are astounding.

To me, if there are ghastly ghouls, wizards flying around on broomsticks, threats between villains and heroes, and explosions, it's a must-see movie.

My review is as simple as that. Maybe you want to offer more, though ...

I liked the movie quite a bit, too. I would still say that “Prisoner of Azkaban” is the best movie in the series (“Goblet of Fire” is my favorite book).

But, like with any movie I enjoyed, there were a few things I didn’t like:

This is one of my least favorite books in the series, especially when it comes to Harry’s storyline – he spends the whole book whining about something. But this book was also the point in the series where I really started to like Neville Longbottom, who is now my favorite character, and started to like Ron a lot more. Unfortunately, in the movie they were both given next to nothing to do.

Also, the movie seemed a little jumpy to me (and to my friends with whom I saw it).

Other than that, I thought it was aces (the bee’s knees, even). I did realize that I’ve become the Harry Potter equivalent of a “Star Wars” geek – I obsess and become super-nerdy about even the smallest things or plot points (as evidenced by the fact that my favorite character is a very minor one).

Can’t wait until the book comes out next weekend!
