Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix


is infinitely better than the previous instalment, Harry Potter and the Globet of Fire. It really does help to lower expectations before stepping into the cinema. I was expecting a pretty boring movie because the book is boring anyway. But no, it went just fine and I was captivated throughout the entire show. No more PMS-ing Hermione and senile Dumbledore, which is good. The wittiness of the characters really cracked the audience up, and Umbridge was particularly entertaining. How fun, were our school to have one such teacher for us students to collectively condemn lol :)
