| 11.15.09 | DVD | Revisiting the second film, which was and still is my least favorite. It's not that it's bad... it's just that it feels the most episodic and transitional (of the 5 i've seen anyway. The 6th is in definite danger of this). Plus Dobby really shows his digital age, the practical animatronics like the phoenix and the basilisk are also a bit dodgy and should be more believable, and there are a few ug moments particularly at the end when you wonder why Harry does certain things... like drop his wand right in front of Tom riddle. Still, knowing how good the third film is, this is a necessary step in the series. I can't remember this book well enough to know if the same story problems were there or not but like i said it's not all-together bad, it just doesn't hold as many strengths as the rest of the series. |
