👏yupppp i sawwwwww ootp today and seriouslyyyyyy i hav never felt soo happyyy after an HP movie😃 Same here..i felt sooo happy after i walked out!!!!

the movie is simplyyyyyyyy outstanding👏👏....i mean its the hugest book in the entire series and the movie has tried to cover it all as closely as possible....according to me by far dis movie is definately the closest to the book..and above all everything is soooo soo brilliantly done...am just simplyyy in love with the movie...and now this movie has definately replaced PS for me😳..its just amazinggggg👏👏 yea..it was hard to cover the whole 800 pages but i thought this was the best HP movie!!!

i looooooved loooooooved loooved the last part of the movie from the entire department of mystries thing....it was just out of the world....they hav tried to depict everything soooo brilliantly...the prophecy. the fight against the death eaters, all spells and jinxes, lucias bella, and al six DA students, everything was sooo brillaint, but the best was sirius...ohhh i just loved the blow he gave to lucias shouting to him to be away from his godson😳and all the order members their duells and sirius's death everything was just simply brilliant....specialy sirius's death😭😭its very well picturised and i loooooooved harry's expressions😭aww it was sad i had a twitchyy throat then....😭 i know...the duel was awesome..i never expected it to be sooooo cool!!!!!!! and the whole last 45 minutes were the best minutes ever in HP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

but wat realyy zapped me was the duel between voldy and dumbledore it was spectaculet......and that sceen in the end where voldy posseses harry....thats my fvtttttttt sceen in the entire movie...its soooo soo well done that i actualy had tears at the end of it....firstly wen voldy posseses harry, he gets all the bad memories as flashes, sirius dying cederic dying his mum's voices and voldy's return, and he hears voldy shouting to him that u r weak and u cant escape me.....but then suddenly amidst all the bad stuff he starts getting flashes of good happy stuff.....it was sooooo soo touching....he rembers the mirror where he saw his parents smiling in PS....he rembers happy times with ron and hermione....he remembers some cute hugs and talks he exchanged wid sirius....he hears dumbledore telling him...."its your choice that makes you different and you chose not to be like him......" and thats wen he shouts that hes not the one whos weak but rather its the other way around and that he pities voldy coz he nevr knew the power of love and friendship....and then voldy obviously comes out of him as he cldnt stand too much of love...its simplyyyy one of the best sceens i have evr seen👏 👏👏

i also loved each and every harry sirius sceen particularly the one where sirius gives harry the photograph of the older order...{in the book it was given by moody}.....it was soo emotional....on seeiing james, sirius says....."its been 14 years, and not a day has passed wen i havnt missed him" 👏👏..i love dis pair of friends even more than the trio itself....😳....even that sceen was faab wen harry tells sirius that he was the snake who actually attacked arthur, sirius says he is not turning bad and only bad things hav happened to him in the past and in the end he says that wen al dis is over they would be a real family....and then they both share a very cute hug...it was realyy awesmee👏 I know..the scenes between HP and Black were sooooo touching!!!!😭😳

loonyyyy lovegood rockeddd👏👏especialyy in that sceen where harry and she are in the forbidden forests and she tells him that voldy would hav loved to make harry a loner so that then he would be alone wid no defence and hence an easy target....😳..and ofcorse al her nargles comments were just typically loony types😳

and harry's first kiss was cutee though the sceen after that was hillarious🤣🤣 🤣🤣ron and hermy pulling harry's leg🤣🤣obviously the book was better but this wasnt bad either....hermy actually tells ron he has an emotional range of a tea spoon😳 oh yea..i couldn't stop laughing after that scene happened!!!!!!!!!!!

the DA was also done brillaintlyyy👏👏they really got the entire DA thing head on except perhaps the SNITCH thing..all the meeting were faaaab.....loved the way hermy stunned ron🤣🤣🤣...ron was like hermione go easy ok...and the moment ron turns hermy stuns him brilliantly🤣🤣and neville's disarming and ginny's reducto where awesmee too but the best was the petronus one everybody looked so thrilled in being able to conjure a petronus...though i cldnt make out whose shape was who...😛 oh eya...the da was aweomse...i never thought it would be this great!!!

and fred and george's escape to freedome was just supppperb🤣it was hillarious and soo much fun to watch wil all the fire works hitting f🤣iltch and umby at exactly the right places🤣v🤣throwing away all the decree holdings🤣🤣and finally flying away like true heroes......tooo too goood...😃 hahahahaha..i know...that was the funniest part ever!!!!!!!!!! they were the true heroes!! and the "W" at the end was the best!!!!!!!!!!!!

and the grwap meeting though a bit away from the book but still was superbbbb ron and hermy rooooocked in it🤣🤣that gigantic creature takes hermy in his hand and hermy actually orders him to put her down....he gently places her down and ron is like hermy u got an admirer🤣🤣and grwap actually gives her something...and ron seeing it says half scaredly that stay away from herrr🤣🤣🤣...the pair of them rooock😳 yea...that shows how much hermy means to grawpy..and the chemistry between ron and hermy was mind-blwoing!!!!

phewww...in totality it was just an unforgetable experiance they even got umby's carachtre perfectlyyyy everything was soo close to the book that it felt it realy was HP though i wish ron was shown a bit more and the pensieve sceen should also have been shown fully along wid lily james argument...though there obviously where bloopers, but the movie as a whole was such an awesme portrayal of the book that every nitty gritty can be overlooked😳

i would definately watch it again....13th of July is realyy a special day for me and now another reason added to it😳



all my answers are in purple!!!!

Oh! i saw Harry Potter OOTP and Was so delighted after i saw it...... the scenes during the fight in the Department of Mysteries was Outstanding....The sudden death of Sirius Black brought me almost near to tears...... Daniel acted superb when Voldemort tried to corrupt his soul...Trewanley was cute..Umbridge was gr8 in acting ...... Luna was good ... Emaa rupert etc were also good...

The movie was FANTASTIC!!!!!!!!1 I totally loved it to bits and shreds!!! I do not agree at all with the negative comments and the comments on the 'scenes which were cut'.

OotP is a 700+ page long fat block of a novel...how is it possible to ever show ALL the scenes in the movie????

In my opinion...the scenes which were cut out weren't that important and I did not miss them at all, except the Harry-Dumbledore talk at the end.

Infact one of the main reasons that I loved this movie was because it stayed true to the book in a major way. the plot line was the same as the book, and tey did not edit anything major...they cut out only the minor parts which was indisputably required!

And the amazing things about the movie is, David Yates managed to show almost all the important scenes and they were faithful to cannon.
The Voldemort on the station scene was chilling, Harry angry lashing out at Ron in the dormitory and his yelling scene with Seamus...very much cannon.

It isn't possible to put in all the scenes, and I did not mind the absence of Quidditch, nor the fact that Neville found out the Room of Requirements. It actually gave a lot of screen time to Matthew Lewis without taking up the movie's precious time. His scene with Harry about his parents was touching too.

Coming to the adult actors, need I say, they were simply fabulous! 👏 👏 They acted bloody brilliantly! 👏 👏 Esp. Umbridge and Bellatrix! And the new characters like Tonks(oh how I loved her!) and Shacklebolt were so amazing and so canon! 👏 👏

Luna rocked too! Evanna Lynch is the perfect choice for Luna...they gave attention to minute details like the way she talks and the way she walks🤣

Then OotP surprised me in that, I wasn't expecting any Thestrals at all...since the promo posters show the sextet on brooms and all. But the Thestrals were definitely upto the mark..the baby thestral was cho cute!

The animals scenes were also very cute! Crookshanks and the Extendable Ears...aww so cute!!! 😆 Then Fang eating Hagrid's meat 😆 😆

Coming to comedy...Fred and George rocked right from the moment they entered, apparating..they were hilarious! Their last flight from Hogwarts was really fantastic and well done indeed 👏 👏 And the box of chocos they sent to Filch...priceless🤣

I also loved Snape's scenes..he was well used as a comic interlude in the Umbridge scenes. Alan Rickman really is THE Snape...none other..none other!

The Harry-Sirius interaction was so warm and lovable..and the hugs and all..their emotional attachment for each other was really well portrayed. And the scene when Voldemort possesses Harry was superb 👏 I loved how they added all his memories to the mix..all the times he shared with Ron and Hermione, their jokes, is mother,Sirius, James...ad Cedric's death.

And the line he says: I feel sorry for you...you don't have friendship (or something like it)
That was heart warming..really 👏

I loved the ending too..how they have put in Harry's friends amongst his memories..not merely his parents and Sirius. That was missing in the book, I felt.

I only missed Snape's Worst Memory..it was rushed way too much and there wasn't any Lily in it 😔 They edited out the poor girl😔

Well, seeing as OotP was never one of my fav. books from the series....this movie is surprising top in my list of movies..simply because....it's CANON!!! 👏 👏

Ill repeat what I wrote in the other topic since I'm too lazy to write a review on OotP again:

And I'll say I disagree with you smriti on this....I'll say its mind blowing..yes it is..

But the best thing is....

It's CANON!!!!!!!!!👏

oh yea..how could I have forgotten to mention this scene🤣 I had seen this scene long back...when the first promo for OotP was released and I had absolutely loved from tat time around👏👏🤣 And was soooo dying to seeing🤣

And I forgot to add....

When Harry first comes to Grimmauld Place and the adults are fighting whether they should tell him the news or not and he's like If Voldemort's buiding up an army...then I want to fight

And then Sirius gives this "what did I tell you? He's my godson after all" kinda shrug...it was done so awesomely...he was so damn sexy in that one!!!!!!!!!

You ask a question I will give you more than reasons... I will give you a logical conclusion

PS/SS Pages 309 Running Time 152 MINS
COS Pages 352 Running Time 161 MINS
POA Pages 448 Running Time 141 MINS
GOF Pages 734 Running Time 157 MINS
OotP Pages 896 Running Time 138 MINS

What is worth noting here is that the longest book has the shortest time-span in the movies..... now that what I call editing... (hats of to Mr. Miachel Goldenberg)
