This was the oddball of the Harry Potter series, scenes were loosely strung together by the weakest and smallest plot so far. Visually, it was disgusting. Every scene seemed desaturated of most color, except a slight tint of sepia which drove me mad. The back lighting was horrible. The overcast sky, always seemed completely overexposed. Even the environment around Hogwarts was different. Horrible look. Though it still featured some interesting special effects, but mostly the movie came across as artificial, sort of like the film 300. The movie was funny but the magic is gone. Hogwarts just isn't the place it used to be. The end leaves something to be desired. Had this movie wowed me in the end, I would be writing a positive review.
