    Harry Potter and the regurgateted old pony!

    Without a doubt the weakest of all the Harry Potter films with a story so vague and paltry that Rowling obviously knocked it out whilst waiting for a kettle to boil.

    Simply the same old routine, danger at Hogwarts which only Harry can sort out whilst Ron plays the gormless git and Hermoine the snotty nosed swot.

    As i say the story just revolves in circles, characters come and go without explantation, no moving staircases and ghosts here as the director opts for some grown up action as Harry's hormones finally kick in (about 5 years too late).

    Stupid subplots about Ron's snogging exploits and Hermione's unrequited love help pad out the proceedings along with the contents of a Silent Night mattress,

    Its a mess and shows that Rowling's knack for telling the same story over and over has started not to just show cracks but gaping potholes.

    Maybe the books better but this definately for the fans only.

    Terrible stuff.

    Still at least Harry and Co have acted a little like 18 year olds and finally gone to the pub!

Meyer's books have caused a similar splash in the US as the Harry Potter novels in the UK, but she is still relatively unknown in this country. Speaking to Hollywood Reporter, Summit Entertainment's Rob Freidman... Read more
