After watching Goblet of Fire the other day, I decided to watch the next Harry Potter film in the series (and the most recent), "Order of the Phoenix".OOTP is Harry Potter's fifth year at Hogwarts. However, things are set to change as the Ministry of Magic, unwilling to believe that the evil Lord Voldemort has returned, stations Dolores Umbridge as a new teacher at the school. Umbridge is a nasty piece of work, tries to take over the school and is brilliantly played by Imelda Staunton.
I think this is the best Potter film to date, despite the book being my least favourite. I think all the right things were included in the film. The scenes in the Room of Requirement are some of my favourites. Having all the students together in one place is really good to see, especially when you get to see them conjuring their Patronuses (charms that takes the form of an animal and will protect against dark creatures).
My favourite scene in the entire film is the battle scene at the end between Voldemort and Dumbledore. It's wonderful. The special effects are amazing and the fact that there's no background music in it makes it quite chilling.
It's a really good adaptation, very entertaining and it keeps you gripped from beginning to end.
Now I can't wait for Half-Blood Prince to be released this November!!
9/10

I really love this film, it's so much better than the previous four.
And I agree - the scene with Voldemort and Dumbledore is awesome! :D
