Review

This is the first Harry Potter movie that shows the muggle world is directly affected by the wizarding world. Harry the protagonist of the series is the one given the responsibility to save both worlds. Getting deeper into the story the dangers of Voldemort increase and the need to control and kill him also increases. This time it’s not just Voldemort but also professor Snape who wants Dumbledore to be dead.

With the story becoming more grave with succeeding plots so does the level of romance in the series. Harry finds himself in love with Ginny, Ron’s sister. Ron on the other hand starts dating Lavender Brown which makes Hermione upset and jealous. As the story starts looking to solve and reaching a conclusion an even more dramatic twist comes in. This is the beauty of Harry Potter and that has made it the most loved series of all time.
