 A short PoA review by AICN Summary:
AICN has another PoA review that does reveal some new information and does contain spoilers. Article: A short PoA review by AICN Aint it Cool News has another review for PoA, from a fan of the films who saw a preview.
The article does contain some new information and spoilers. Although a word of warning; the actual article, which can be found here does contain profanity and so here is a quote without any bad language. *Visit the actual article at your own discretion* Quote: Enough of the plot, which is actually a lot more adult than the previous movies., but we got better stuff to talk about. First off all, these kids have improved ten fold. Especially the kid who plays Hermione. These kids actually make you believe they've been through these past few years. Harry is especially war-torn, feeling the weight of all this. There's a scene where Harry must protect Hermione that is actually touching.*
The rest of the cast is pretty much the same as before, though Snape gets some much more deserved screen time, and the new Dumbledore is alright. He def. aint Richard Harris, but he does the job.*
As for Cuaron, he makes the film. This film is an outright thriller. The movie starts out light but slowly the creepiness factor begins to, uh, creep in. And for the first time, we actually sense that we are in a magical world. He keeps his close-ups to a minimum and lets us just feast on the wonderful eye candy. It's all so freaking beautiful!*
And terrifying. This is a kids movie? I mean, the stars are kids, but it's all pretty unsettling, especially these Dementors. They seem to be like Kryptonite to our young wizard Harry. It's kind of freaky to see these things roaming around what's supposed to be a school. Also, there's the required Quidditch match, which takes place in rain and is interrupted by the friendly dementors.*
The end is pretty brilliant, even for me who hates time travel. And it's not the cop out that I felt the previous two films gave us. All in all, it's a cool movie I'd say right up there with LOTR. And Im sure HP lovers would probably argue its even better than that. Out. The article also states, as previous sources have ( CBBC & TLC) that John Malkovich will not be playing Voldemort, as confirmed by WB.

A very good review. It sounds like the acting has improved in this one, although I thought the acting in the other movies were good too. I think he was joking about Emma smoking.  I can't wait to see the finished product.

And Alan, as Snape, is so convincing and so lovely to look at.

this guy is hilarious. he cracked me up and gave it a really good review. now i'm even more excited. i'm goin to get a job as a movie critic so i can see awesome movies before everyone else and then tease them all with awesome reviews.
i was a little unsure about Alfonso but it seems like he's doing a great job!
