Order of the Phoenix is about the Real World

Why do Harry Potter movies give me, but not the children, nightmares? I've been wondering this for the past few years. Today, watching Movie No. 5, Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix (Warner Bros., 2007), I got my answer. Simply: Harry's world is the real world. As Harry and his friends mature, the line between the world of wizardry, magic, and Hogwarts and the world of self-centered, manipulative, cruel adults thins to the point of almost magical invisibility.

Fantasy literature has since the beginning of time been about mediating and making sense of the real world; Harry Potter is part of this tradition.

Indeed, one of the movie's first big special effects embodies this idea. As the movie opens, Harry is the subject of a smear campaign that Valdemore has cooked up because darkness works tirelessly to triumph over the light; when his friends come to rescue him from the suburban horror show known as his adoptive family, they take him to the headquarters of the Order of the Phoenix, a place that doesn't exist until a row of Georgian homes stretches out to reveal it. It's there, but the neighbors are unaware of it. They have no idea their building grew a house that the wizards and witches of the world can solve an internal problem. Such is life; how seldom do we know the inner workings, the coping mechanisms, the interior life of the people around us? In The Order of the Phoenix, Harry Potter again does battle with evil to bring home the theme that when you fight, you fight well with and for your friends and to the death if necessary. Truth and goodness--call if love, if you want--are worth the trouble. The Gothic idiom of Harry Potter brilliantly takes the challenges Harry faces out of the present on one level even though these are very clearly 21st century characters facing contemporary challenges. Alongside the power of goodness over evil theme is the theme of the power of the imagination to find solutions to problems that are the same in every generation: politics, power games, jealousy, stupidity, growing up.

Always in Harry Potter is the clear distinction between the good guys and the bad ones right alongside the good kids and the annoying kids, who could very well become evil people if they so choose. They are tragic because they don't understand the long-range consequences of their petty cruelties--but then, as we learn in this movie, even the good kids are capable of petty cruelties that break souls. Always there is Snape, the middling Hogwarts employee who is not clearly good but not clearly bad but capable of both (until fate forces his hand in Book 6).

J.K. Rowling doesn't let anybody off of the hook of responsibility for their choices. But she does present the internal struggle for goodness and justice for the mess that it can be. Just as the Gothic world of Hogwarts helps Harry and his friends mediate the real world, so Rowling helps her readers see the world for what it is. This is a world that can give me nightmares, though not my daughter and my nephews. Perhaps because all they really need is an honest story.

The Order

The Order of the Phoenix is the first of the series from the best Director Harry Potter had (David Yates) and it shows. I'm going back and rewatching these all in sequential order and this one surprised me the most as it's a lot better and more enjoyable than I remember. The story line is fantastic. Harry and his crew train and gear up for what's to come. The Order is introduced and helps. And Voldemort and his side also start to gain power and momentum. We also get to see the Order fight Voldemort's minions AND Dumbledore fight Voldemort. This was an extremely fun and underrated movie in the series.

If your head spins when you see HP 5, don't worry, it's not just you.

To be honest I didn't have very high hopes for this film. However, that kind of situation can usually allow for one to be impressed. This, however, was not the case.

To say that it may have been the most difficult book of the seven to put to screen is really not that much of an understatement. It is by far the longest, and had the most going on throughout the book, with the Ministry turning into a full-blown cover-up organization and Harry and co. just trying to survive the bashing of Harry in the tabloids. Cue the worst possible script imaginable.

I can't be nice about this. I watched this movie by myself, which means I wasn't going to be influenced by friends or family. That said, this movie was ridiculous (and not in a good way). I felt like the movie was on light speed. It blew by from plot point to plot point to plot point so quickly that half the characters received the most minimal of screen time, including Alan Rickman's Snape, who looked shocked every time he actually got to say something, as half of his screen time involved no speaking, just standing around. Sirius was even further abused. He would look longingly at Harry as though he wished he had time amongst the cascades of events in the movie to just talk to him. Pathetic. Then, as if it couldn't GET ANY WORSE, Ginny is not even in the movie. I've watched it twice now, but she's not even present for any kind of role at all outside of her sitting at the table in the Weasley's house. Now, correct me if I'm wrong, but shouldn't the future WIFE of Harry Potter get a little more CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT than that?!

Well, typically, the answer would be yes, but character development was at an all-time low in this one, as the ENTIRE chapter on the O.W.L.'s which was very tense and interesting, was replaced with one exam seen, proctored by Umbridge and spruced up with some unimpressive CGI mischief. In addition, as the characters moved from event to event to event, they always seemed to be out of breath, and I couldn't tell if it was from all the running they were constantly doing or the breakneck pace of the movie. Everyone just kind of popped up to ask what was going on or, in the case of several characters, including Sirius, who had been my all-time favorite character in the series, just as enemy fodder. To me, every character in this movie felt like a throwaway, and when your movie is full of garbage, the best it can be is a garbage can.

Unfortunately, there are plenty of people who just liked the movie because it looks good. However, I'm not simply drawn to shiny things, I need some actual substance in my movies, so for me, this is honestly one of the worst movies ever made.
