set design of new areas, Special Effects, superb acting from all, cannot wait for the next movie
Cons
Didn't follow the book close enough, Too few details about the Order, no Quidditch

Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix —
I am a huge Harry Potter fan. I rushed out and saw this movie on opening day and then bought it the first day it was on DVD. I was a little surprised at the darker element that they brought into this movie since it is based as children movies. Don't get me wrong i like them all and i have read and bought every single book, I am jus concerned about theĀ really younger kids who are also HP fans. I know that the movies will only get darker as they get towards the last one, i jus expected them to break it in a little more gently. Over all though i think this movie is great.
