Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix

What to Know

Critics Consensus

It's not easy to take the longest Harry Potter book and streamline it into the shortest HP movie, but director David Yates does a bang up job of it, creating an Order of the Phoenix that's entertaining and action-packed.

Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix | Rotten Tomatoes (1)

Deborah Ross

The Spectator

Traditional drama is usually a three-act deal: set-up, conflict, resolution. But this is the three-act deal every two minutes. Danger, baddie, magic. Danger, baddie, magic. Danger, baddie, magic. It's as tired as it is tiresome.

Bruce Diones

New Yorker

By focussing the story on Harry (a leaner and slightly meaner Daniel Radcliffe) and his exploits, Yates dispenses with many of the novel's subplots and is able to push the story forward, ominously foreshadowing the dark times to come.

Gone With The Twins

Clearly serving as an overly dependent middle section of the franchise, this is one of the more forgettable installments.

Rated: 4/10

Leigh Paatsch

Herald Sun (Australia)

The fifth Potter picture is one of the lesser entries in the series: way too rushed, and a mite too dour.

Rated: 3/5

Clayton It was amazing! Loved it Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/10/22 Full Review Prabudhjeet A Yes, things are getting darker and serious. Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/02/24 Full Review Audience Member I was shocked seeing it having the lowest rating of the movies. It's the only movie I prefer over the book. Sirius was a lot less annoying here than the book, though Dobby not being here is still a crime. Still, great movie. Rated 4/5 Stars • Rated 4 out of 5 stars 06/22/24 Full Review Chris T This was my least favorite of the series, mainly because of professor Umbridge I don't mind the character but I feel like it's excessive it's no way she should be the main antagonist but she is and therefore disturbs the flow of this movie. Rated 3.5/5 Stars • Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 06/19/24 Full Review Audience Member I mean, it's alright, like Rated 4/5 Stars • Rated 4 out of 5 stars 06/17/24 Full Review Samuel S The weakest of the series. This is where the series became more episodic with the movies losing individual identities. Still solid though with a good villain in the ministry of magics plant in Hogwarts.
