Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix (2007, DVD)

In "Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix," Harry returns for his fifth year of study at Hogwarts and discovers that much of the wizarding community is in denial about the teenager's recent encounter with the evil Lord Voldemort, preferring to turn a blind eye to the news that Voldemort has returned. Fearing that Hogwarts' venerable Headmaster, Albus Dumbledore, is lying about Voldemort's return in order to undermine his power and take his job, the Minister for Magic, Cornelius Fudge, appoints a new Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher to keep watch over Dumbledore and the Hogwarts students. But Professor Dolores Umbridge's Ministry-approved course of defensive magic leaves the young wizards woefully unprepared to defend themselves against the dark forces threatening them and the entire wizarding community, so at the prompting of his friends Hermione and Ron, Harry takes matters into his own hands. Meeting secretly with a small group of students who name themselves "Dumbledore's Army," Harry teaches them how to defend themselves against the Dark Arts, preparing the courageous young wizards for the extraordinary battle that lies ahead.


Those magical kids return with their obligatory authority figure adults in tow. Only they're not so little anymore and as the last movie proved, they're all well on their way to no longer being kids. Whatever plot lines director David Yates chooses to chase, it's essential that he makes following their slow bloom into adulthood a priority while at the same time avoiding the discussion of things like oh, say, condoms.

I'm not a huge fan of the last movie, but that's one thing that Goblet of Fire's director Mike Newell got right. The awkwardness of puberty, their newfound interest in the opposite sex. Watching these kids grow up on screen is what's most interesting about the Harry Potter series to anyone over the age of twelve, not their bag of magical tricks.

The seriesï new director, as mentioned above, is David Yates. With each new director comes a new, distinctive style. Thatï's a plus really, it gives every movie its own unique energy. But this is the first truly high profile film Yates has ever touched, and itï's certainly his first big-budget blockbuster. Since Columbus, that seems to be the route Warner Brothers is going with their Harry Potter directors. Both of the last two helmers had similar, low-budget resumes and it�s worked well so far. The real difference in Yates is that he's the Potter franchise's first British director. Odd when you consider there's not an American in sight when you check out the cast.

Expect more of the same from the fifth Harry Potter. Only Cuaron's movie, the third one, has distinguished itself from the pack as anything special. The rest have been entertaining but ultimately mediocre, and the sad thing is that Harry's hardcore fans seem to prefer that. Mediocre I suppose, is better than bad. The films have maintained a consistent level of quality, and thats more than most other long-running movie franchises can claim.

A MUST BUY
9/10

Ordered for low/good price. Prompt and safe mailing; Received exactly what was advertised and ordered.

I currently have this purchase in dispute with the seller, they received payment over 6 weeks ago and have not sent item.

I am so happy that this is a series that I can enjoy and share with my children- as the series goes on, there are very real issues that deal with a person's character and how they chose to deal with the hand they have been dealt. Excellent for the whole family! Some care should be taken in regards to little ones watching. Some parts can be scary.

I am a fan of the books and the movies! This was a really great price! I have collected all of the movies so far. I love collecting movies. Maybe I can leave so they can be enjoyed by the children in my family.

I was so not pleased when I purchased this DVD. No where did it say that it was a burned copy or bootleg. I was under the impression that I was buying the real thing. Will never do business with this buyer.

THe DVD was in good shape and It arrived promptly. We received quick response and it was a smooth transaction

I really loved this film. It made everything that I pictured in my head while reading the book come to life(except Umbrige should be fatter), I hated how they left out they left out important things that were in the book. The visuals were GREAT the BIG FIGHT at the end was well worth every penny I spent on the movie!!!

Not only was it a great movie, the condition of the movie was great,and the sound was clear; but I'm partial to Harry Potter movies.

Great description of Harry Potter and the Order of Phoneix. Came brand new and in original packaging so products quality was ensured top notch. Transaction was quick with easy and fast shipping.

This movie didn't get dragged down into details, and obviously anticipated that most viewers understand the history of the characters. Really good effects, and photography. Completely enjoyed this movie.

This is nothing like the book. Well it is a little bit, but I hate it when the companies make the dvd from the book. I will not continue watching the dvds if they keep editing it too much. I think they need to consider remaking this with a different company. However it does go through and it is almost similar to the book, but it's sort of a half and half of the same as the book.

i purchased this dvd 4 days ago and recieved it quickly and there was NO cost for delivery!!! Will buy from again in the future.

this tape , i bidding mistake to few hundreds number and I could not make cancel, so automatically i am the winner, because i bid few hundreds, i typed one more "0" makes tataly different.

MUST HAVE!! THIS IS A GOOD MOVIE!! YOU WILL ENJOY THIS MOVIE!! MAKE SURE YOU BUY THIS MOVIE!! FUN FOR EVERYONE!! :)

I'm a Harry Potter fan; I'm not going to review the movie. I bought the DVD because, sometimes, our cable tv is just awful, despite the 70+ channels. It's nice to watch something that I enjoy with NO commercials.

I've always gone to eBay for new DVD's. This particular DVD was shrink-wrapped and even made me wonder where the buyer got it, ie: shoplifting???? But, for me, the buyer, the price was good and I knew that I was getting a new DVD below local market prices. Even with the shipping, the price was good.

The delivery was also good. The item was packaged in that plastic with small bubbles; the item arrived in perfect condition. I know that I can, and have, e-mailed sellers when things were not acceptable; that's another that is nice about eBay.

Other than the movie itself, my experience with eBay, for this transaction, was great.
