I love movies, always had, but when I compare them to the book on
which they were based I always feel disapointed. I think the movie
stuck to the facts, focusing only on the main story line and living
secondary characters behind. The dialogues were pretty much copied
from the books, which I liked, but when they were said by a different
character it was disturbing, shocking and almost painful.
On the other hand, I loved the interactions between Sirius and Harry,
it showed love. In the books after PoA, I've been expecting some
serious scenes with the two of them, I wanted them to talk, bond, and
just be around each other. I think I got what I wanted in this film.
I enjoyed their huggs, their glances at each other. I liked it at the
beginning when Harry wanted to join the Order and Sirius gave him an
approving look, really liked it. It was as if they understood each
other, they were in sync. It was really touching.
I think the producers threw a low punch in the final battle scene
when Harry and Sirius are fighting the DEs together and Siruis calls
him 'James'. It was as if they were trying to say that Sirius was
crazy, and confusing the two of them. I don't think Sirius has ever
mistaken the two of them, he is very clear on who they are and what
they mean to him. Just like Hermione and Mrs Weasley said during the
book, that he may be confusing each other. It's just unfair. Maybe I
feel this way cause I'm a huge Sirius fan. But I just don't like when
anyone talks bad about him.
