Instant Movie Review: Harry Potter 3

[serinde]

I liked it better, stylistically, than the first two; I think the director change was a Good Thing. The fact that there was only one giant spider in the whole thing, and it was brief, did not actually impact my judgment, I hasten to add. One definite problem (that can only get worse as the series goes on) is that they had to leave considerably more out of this one due to time constraints, and it's starting to make a difference. Heck, by the time they get to "HP and the Order of the Phoenix" they'll need a freakin' miniseries just to hit the high points.
