The worst scene of the Harry Potter movies!
I like Harry Potter movies! I think they all kept the overall quality at an acceptable level or at least this was the case until the last one; Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince (2009). In this movie the Hogwart’s Headmaster Albus Dumbledore, who is the most powerful wizard (after or before Lord Voldemort?) and Harry’s main supporter and role model, dies! Not only how he dies it pretty pathetic! and doesn’t put up a flight, after he falls down and everyone gathers around him, his face is only shown from ONE angel! just one! no behind the shoulder or close ups from other sides, just one angle and not a very good one! I think his death was a very dramatic incident and should been portrayed stronger! Although the rest of the shots in the scene are technically good, the lack of originality is frustrating! Make me glad that I didn’t go watch the film in cinema! I guess this is what happens when one director (David Yates) is in charge of a series, the quality is gradually falling! Sadly Yates is directing the next two as well!( Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows) so there’s no hope to see a master piece.

Harry potter’s movie adoption is more like a joke comparing to its Novel. The original story is quite serious and also dark.
There is a good justification about Dumbledore’s death in the Novel, you should wait and see the next ones.
