Harry Potter OOTP is a very exciting,suspenseful movie. You can tell how the directors and writers really brought elements of the book to the big screen which is a big accomplishment that few people can do. The actors in this picture are very,'persuasive' in making you believe your reading the book. I do wish they kept Quid ditch in the movie because that was an importatnt part of the book but they accomplished the movie without it. For every Harry Potter fan you should really see this and the soundtrack was so great, I went and bought it.

This movie was good. If you read the book, you can tell how much they really cut out. DELORES **** UMBRIDGE IS A FOUL TOAD. The next one is going to be sad.

It wasn't bad and I enjoyed it but in my opinion this is the weakest installment of the series so far. Certainly didn't live up to the quality of Goblet of Fire and the Prisoner of Azkaban, especially if you had previously read the book.

Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix is an entertaining entry in the Harry Potter series and I really enjoyed it. My only complaint is that it was too rushed and some scenes were very choppy, which made the film's events hard to understand. Overall, it was a great movie with nonstop action and suspense.

It seemed really rushed, if you didn't read the book, you definitely wouldn't have understood it.

  For all its portentousness, this is the best Harry Potter picture yet. In some ways, it improves on J.K. Rowling's novel, which is punishingly protracted and builds to a climactic wand-off better seen than read.

  It's action-packed, darker, more epic and thankfully schmaltz-free. And it's the best "Harry Potter" film yet.

  In narrative terms, not that much happens, but as for Harry's emotional journey--well, that's nearly epic.

  The special effects continue to be masterful, but villains are given a new twist, and Order of the Phoenix is all the more fun because of it.

  For those who have gotten their Harry Potter fix entirely through the cinematic incarnation, the script is lucid and fast-moving.

  Yet, as good as it is in so many ways, there's no getting around the fact that this briefest Harry and first directed by an unknown filmmaker (David Yates) is the least substantial of the bunch.

  The whole film is about innocence and experience, and if it isn't a Blakean song, it is a sturdy and vibrant piece of prose.

  The flourishes don't answer the question most on Potterites' minds -- who lives, who dies? -- but they briefly stupefy.

  Screenwriter Michael Goldenberg and director David Yates have transformed J.K. Rowling's garrulous storytelling into something leaner, moodier and more compelling, that ticks with metronomic purpose as the story flits between psychological darkness and cartoonish slapstick.

  It won't win new fans, but as Potter movies go, this is the most filmic of the lot, suspenseful and action-packed.

  Timely metaphors abound in The Order of the Phoenix, but the story (of which there is much) stands on its own magical merits, dark and darker still though they may be.

  Harry comes through loud and clear as a conflicted, edgy, avid young man. He's turned into EveryTeen.
