The latest Harry Potter movie was released a few weeks ago across the world. I saw it when it came out, though for some reason I'd missed adding it to the forums here!

Anyway, the film is excellent. As ever the ever growing cast delivers. Not to mention that the various special effects look fantastic.

With Lord Voldermort returned, the magic world is in split leaving Harry and the gang to look after themselves, bringing many of them together in ways they would never have predicted (I've never read the books, so this is all new to me!). Life is dangerous for Harry now.

If you haven't see this yet, I suggest you go and do so (after Transformers

)

Check out the trailer if you want a taster:

Good movie... I like the darker tone, although my wife preferred the previous movies because they seemed to have more action.
I didn't think so.. oh well.. definitely recommend it... this one actually made me think about reading the books :)

They're all gonna be 20 (all the kids) when they finish the last film >_<

Anyway I don't really like the movies, the books are good.

Can't believe I forgot to post about this!

Loved the film, can't wait for the next one, shame it's still over a year away!

The tone worked well in this, with the story fairly well focused on a central thread (namely, the preparation for a war in the wizard world, with Voldermort gathering an army, the small group who are preparing to fight against them and the rest of the wizarding world refusing to believe that he has returned). Some interesting development in the characters with some well established characters starting to show a new side to them.
