Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix (may contain movie spoilers)

Just got back from taking the family to see this, and as expected, we all thoroughly enjoyed it. I've discovered since that it's the shortest of all the HP movies so far, but I certainly didn't notice that while we were in there.

It was really rather good, there was a lot of content and it didn't feel like some of the earlier HPs which I thought were more just made up of certain bits of the books with very little to link them together. Of course there were parts missed out which isn't surprising considering the size of the book but I think that a very good job was done of getting all the important bits in.

Dan Radcliffe has come on a lot since the first film, he's so much better now than he's been in the previous films but he does have other acting experience. Emma Watson was a bit wooden still though. Evanna Lynch as Luna was superb in the few scenes she had ("they're called Thestrals"), dreamy and pretty much out of it!

Umbridge was perfect, as was Belatrix.
