I loved it. Thought it was better than the first two- though I liked those, as well. But this one felt really magical, had this really dreamy, dangerous, otherworldly quality to it that I felt the first two- which were so factual to the book- lacked.
And I loved Hogwarts inside and out. How the grounds and Hagrid's hut, the castle with the portraits on the walls, swinging staircases are just great characters in themselves.
The double decker bus ride through London. That first flight on Buckbeak. Awesome.
And, too, that the actor who plays Harry Potter really grew into the role in this one. Makes sense that after three years of wizarding and all he's faced, Harry would be more confident, more emotional, and would act more than just react. But this time around Daniel was Harry Potter for me, not just some actor standing in.
Ok. That's my spill. JK Rowling- pure genius. Would just love a peek inside her head. Such a richly detailed universe stuffed in there.
