Review: Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows 2

super late, but hey, HP7 part 2 still top of the international box office. 🙂 not to mention the highest grossing film of the year, and numerous other box office records. Warning: contains a lot of bias and perhaps prejudices Here's my review for Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2. The acting for… Continue reading Review: Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows 2

HP Special: Severus Snape

From the beginning, I believed Snape was a good guy. All the way to the Order of the Phoenix and then in the Half-Blood Prince, I was very blinded by hate, and I believed him to be evil. Simply put, I liked Dumbledore too much to forgive Snape. Up to the point where he killed… Continue reading HP Special: Severus Snape

Reaction: Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2

As I am not in the right state to write a review about this film (right now, I have nothing but  praise for it, it's just perfect for me), I can only manage a reaction paper on it. I shall leave the review for later, maybe even after I watch it a second time. I… Continue reading Reaction: Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2

HP week: Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows (film Part 1)

I watched the movie the day it came out, and the cinema was packed. The audience was mostly my age and reactions were fun. The film starts out differently from the book, but it's all good. It definitely gave a sense of foreboding. The scene with 7 Harry Potters was quite funny. I was sad… Continue reading HP week: Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows (film Part 1)

HP week: Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince

I think the sixth has to be the book which changed so many things I previously thought about the series and the characters. Though not as thick as the 5th, it certainly delivered many unforgettable scenes. Perhaps the most shocking event in the books was the death of Dumbledore. And at the hands of Snape.… Continue reading HP week: Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince

HP week: Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire

2005 was an important year for me. I graduated from grade school, the 4th movie came out and also the 6th book. With the 3rd movie having been released the year before, I was very excited for the 4th. The book was full of great scenes and so I had a lot of expectations for… Continue reading HP week: Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire

HP week : Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban

2 years. I waited for the HP3 movie to be released. And was I surprised. 2 years passed, but the cast grew up so much. This was not a smooth transition from the second. But I couldn't blame the director or the actors. It couldn't be helped. On a brighter note, what made it all better was the… Continue reading HP week : Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban

HP week: Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets

Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets was the first HP movie I saw in the cinema. the first one, I only watched at home. I remember it was released around Christmas time and I saw it twice. The first week it was released and then a second time after that. I was very excited… Continue reading HP week: Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets

HP week: Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone

I was first introduced to the world of Harry Potter when I was in third grade. At that time, I remember my older brother watching a pirated version of the movie on the PC, I didn't know what it was about, and I honestly don't remember if I watched it then. But that year, my… Continue reading HP week: Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone
