This movie is about Harry, Dumbledore and the Order of the Phoenix, a secret assembly of wizards, who believe that Lord Voldemort has returned to wreak havoc.
But the Ministry of Magic denies his return and sends Dolores Umbridge to Hogwarts to keep Harry and his allies silent and obedient.
It starts magnificently with horrid, fat Dudley (Harry Melling) being saved from death at the hands of the terrifying Dementors by Harry's illegal use of magic. Harry is whisked away to face an inquisition at a wizard court.
In Imelda Staunton's brilliant performance, Umbridge's pink suits and sweet manner disguise her cruelty and madness. Under her reign, Harry has to train up an illicit army in secret and escape to confront Voldemort in the Ministry of Magic.
Harry Potter and the Order of the Pheonix is more dramatic than the book but lacks the eccentricity of previous episodes.
The secret of Harry potter is that it enchants and terrifies you.
Everybody is going, Are you going too?
Did you know?
When J. K. Rowling, a single mother, wrote the first Harry Potter, sitting in a café scribbling away in a notebook, she would never have dreamed that it would go on to become a phenomenal success. Nearly every publisher rejected the manuscript of the first novel. Her agent finally sold it for a measly advance of thousand pounds and warned her not to expect anything further. Her second novel sold a few more than the first and it was only when the third novel hit the bookstands that Harry Potter became a phenomenon. Today, Rowling is richer than the Queen of England, thanks to the success of Potter novels!
