Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix is a British-made 2007 fantasy adventure film, based on the novel of the same name, by J. K. Rowling. Directed by David Yates, it is the fifth film in the popular Harry Potter film series. The story follows Harry Potter entering his fifth year at the magic school Hogwarts. The Ministry of Magic is denying the return of Lord Voldemort and appoints a new teacher, Dolores Umbridge, a bureaucrat who slowly becomes an authoritarian figure in the school. It is a production of David Heyman's company Heyday Films.

The screenplay was written by Michael Goldenberg, who replaced Steve Kloves, writer of the first four films. Live action filming started in February 2006 and finished in the end of November, and post-production on the film continued for several months afterwards. Warner Bros., the distributor of the film, scheduled a UK release date of 12 July 2007, and a U.S. release date of 11 July 2007, both in conventional and IMAX theatres.

The sixth-highest grossing film of all time, it was a critical and commercial success, and was acclaimed by the author, Rowling, who has consistently offered her praise for the film adaptations of her works,[1][2][3] and evaluated Order of the Phoenix as "the best one yet."[4]

In the film's opening, Harry Potter and his cousin Dudley are attacked by two Dementors, soul-sucking demons from the third film. Because of casting a Patronus, the Ministry of Magic expels Harry from Hogwarts. Harry is taken to a group of rebels formed by Albus Dumbledore during the First Wizarding War called the Order of the Phoenix, whose members include Mad-Eye Moody, Remus Lupin, Ron and the rest of the Weasley family (minus Percy), Hermione and Sirius Black. There, it is revealed that the Ministry of Magic is ruining Harry and Dumbledore's reputation by using the cover-up that they are saying Voldemort's returns is merely trying to get them more famous (using puns like The Boy who Lies/Lied and Plotter). The expulsion will rely on a hearing, which Harry wins with Dumbledore's help. However, he swiftly ignores Harry while leaving (not even looking at him for most of the hearing).

Entering their fifth year at Hogwarts, the trio learn that Minister for Magic Cornelius Fudge has appointed a new Defence Against the Dark Arts teacher: Dolores Umbridge. Harry also learns that much of the Wizarding community believe the The Daily Prophet and have shunned him, including most of his fellow Gryffindors. Umbridge begins teaching a "Ministry approved course" for Defence Against the Dark Arts, creating countless rules (some of which are ridiculous, such as "Boys and girls will not go between 8 inches of each other) and cruel punishments for "rule-breakers", as Harry painfully discovers.

Harry, Ron and Hermione decide to form a rebellion, of which students from Gryffindor, Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw (examples include Neville Longbottom, Ginny Weasley, Luna Lovegood, and Cho Chang, whom he was infatuated with the previous year. The group finally believe Harry's claims about Voldemort's return and form an organization, which they call "Dumbledore's Army", mostly to mock Fudge's claim that Dumbledore is forming a wizarding army to over-throw the Ministry. Harry teaches students in the Room of Requirement while Umbridge remains suspicious. Harry also forms a close relationship with Cho.

Meanwhile, Harry has been seeing into Voldemort's mind through his dreams. In one, he sees Ron's father Arthur attacked in the Department of Mysteries in the Ministry. Harry immediately tells Dumbledore, who believes that Voldemort may have a connection to Harry's mind. Harry begins lessons with Professor Snape to close his mind in the event that Lord Voldemort should become aware of the connection between Harry's mind and his own. Harry shares his fears with Sirius, who gives him helpful advice that he is not becoming like Voldemort.

Hagrid has returned to Hogwarts, under threats from Umbridge to sack him, as she already did Professor Trelawney earlier. Meanwhile, a mass wizard breakout has been engineered from Azkaban. The Ministry claims Sirius was involved in the breakout, as he escaped in Harry's third year. Things get even worse: Umbridge uncovers Dumbledore's Army, by way of Harry's girlfriend, Cho Chang; Dumbledore is forced to escape being sent to Azkaban; and Umbridge becomes the new Head of Hogwarts, inflicting the same punishment she used on Harry to all of Dumbledore's Army members. Harry's relationship with Cho is over.

Hagrid reveals his half-brother, Grawp, to the trio and asks them to keep him company, as he will most likely be sacked. Harry's Occlumency sessions with Snape continue, Harry failing poorly. After Snape insults Harry's father, Harry uses the Protego charm, sending the spell upon Snape. There, he has an uncomfortable vision of his own father bullying the loner Snape when they were students at Hogwarts. Enraged, Snape puts an end to the sessions.

The next day, Fred and George have been fed up with Umbridge and her rules. The two cause extreme chaos during their OWL exams and destroy all of Umbridge's rules, leaving Hogwarts for good. Harry, amidst the cheering, has a vision in which Voldemort in the Ministry of Magic tortures Sirius. Harry, Ron and Hermione immediately goes to Umbridge's office to travel by floo powder, but is caught by Umbridge, as are Ginny, Neville and Luna. Harry and Hermione dispose of her by having her carried away by Ministry-enraged centaurs. Luna suggests they fly to the Ministry in London by Thestrals, horse-like creatures that are seen only by people who have watched someone die. The six Dumbledore's Army enter the Hall of Prophecy in the Department of Mysteries.

Harry discovers a prophecy, which partially explains Harry's past and future. They are surrounded by Death Eaters, including Lucius Malfoy and Bellatrix Lestrange. A battle erupts, in which an accident causes all the prophecies to collapse. The six land in a room with a large mysterious veiled archway, voices speaking in which only Harry and Luna can hear. The Death Eaters capture Ron, Hermione, Neville (by Bellatrix Lestrange, who tortured his parents into insanity 14 years earlier), Luna and Ginny. Lucius threatens to have all of them killed, should Harry refuse to give him the prophecy. Harry gives in and Sirius arrives, along with other members of the Order, and a larger battle erupts. Harry and Sirius take out Lucius and another Death Eater. Bellatrix apparates on a rock and casts the dreadful Avada Kedavra curse upon Sirius. Sirius survives for only mere seconds before dying and disappearing into the veil.

Harry chases Bellatrix into the Ministry atrium, where he casts the Cruciatus Curse upon her, causing her to fall. Voldemort apparates behind Harry and Dumbledore arrives. A large duel erupts and Voldemort disappears. He tries to possess Harry, but his love for his friends prompt him to say Voldemort is weak, not he, as he cannot feel love and friendship, and Harry feels sorry for him. Voldemort is forced from Harry's body, stating, "You're a fool, Harry Potter. And you will lose everything." Voldemort dissapparates, but not before being seen by Fudge and other Ministry members.

The Ministry is forced to end their smearing campaign, Fudge resigns, and Umbridge is somehow rescued and pulled from Hogwarts. Dumbledore explains that he ignored Harry all year, feeling it would protect him. Harry also knows he either must kill Voldemort or be killed himself. Luna gives Harry helpful advice about getting over Sirius' death. The film ends when Harry tells his friends that the one thing they have is something Voldemort will not have: something worth fighting for.

David Yates was chosen to direct the film after Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire director Mike Newell, as well as Jean-Pierre Jeunet,[5] Matthew Vaughn and Mira Nair turned down offers.[6] Yates believed he was approached because of one of his previous projects, the television drama Sex Traffic, and because the studio saw him fit to handle an "edgy and emotional" film with a "political backstory".[5] Steve Kloves, the screenwriter of the first four Potter films, had other commitments, and Michael Goldenberg wrote the script for the film; however, Kloves will return for the next film, Half-Blood Prince.[7]

Rehearsals for Order of the Phoenix began on 27 January 2006, [8] filming began on 6 February,[9] and finished in the end of November 2006.[4] Filming was put on a two-month hiatus starting in May 2006 so that Radcliffe could sit his A/S Levels and Watson could sit her GCSE exams.[10] The film's budget was reportedly between GB£75 and 100 million (US$150 and 200 million).[11][12]

Nicholas Hooper was the composer for the soundtrack of the film, following John Williams, who scored the first three films, and Patrick Doyle, who did the fourth. In the new score, Hooper incorporated variations on "Hedwig's Theme", the series' theme originally written by Williams for the first film and heard in all subsequent ones.[13] In March and April of 2007, Hooper and the London Chamber Orchestra recorded nearly two hours of music at Abbey Road Studios in London. The score, like the film and book, is darker than previous instalments in the series. To emphasise this, the two new main themes reflect the sinister new character Dolores Umbridge, and Lord Voldemort's invasion of Harry's mind. A Japanese Taiko drum was used for a deeper sound in the percussion.[13] The soundtrack was released on 10 July 2007, the eve of the film's release.[14]

Mark Day was the film editor, Sławomir Idziak was the cinematographer, and Jany Temime was the costume designer.[15] Choreographer Paul Harris, who has previously worked with David Yates several times, created a physical language for wand combat to choreograph the wand fighting scenes.[16]

Stuart Craig returned as set designer, having also designed the first four films' sets.[17] There were a number of notable new sets in this film. The atrium in the Ministry of Magic is over 200 feet in length, making it the largest and most expensive set yet built for the Potter film series.[17] Craig's design was inspired by early London Underground stations, where architects "tried to imitate classical architecture but they used ceramic tile", as well as a Burger King on Tottenham Court Road in London, where "there's a fantastic Victorian façade which just embodies the age".[18][19] The set of Number Twelve, Grimmauld Place contains the Black family tapestry spread across three walls; when the producers told Rowling they wanted to visualise the details of each name and birth year, she faxed them a complete copy of the entire tree.[20] The set of the Hall of Prophecies was entirely digitally built. During a fight scene which occurs there, prophecies crash to the ground and break; had it been an actual physical set, the reset time would have been weeks.[21]

The set used for Igor Karkaroff's trial scene in Goblet of Fire was doubled in size for Harry's trial in this film, while still protecting its symmetry.[19] New professor Dolores Umbridge, though she teaches in a classroom that has appeared in films two through four, inhabits an office vastly different from those of her predecessors. The set was redressed with "fluffy, pink filigree" and a number of plates upon which moving kittens were animated in post-production.[22] A 24-hour photo shoot was held to photograph and film the kittens for use on these plates.[23] Even the elegant quill which Umbridge gives Harry to write lines using his own blood is designed by the set designers.[22]

Tim Burke was the visual effects supervisor, John Richardson was the special effects supervisor, and Nick Dudman was the creatures special effects supervisor.[15] The film required over 1,400 visual effects shots, and the London-based company Double Negative created more than 950 of them. Working for six months on previsualisation starting in September 2005, Double Negative was largely responsible for sequences in the Room of Requirement, the Forbidden Forest, the Hall of Prophecies, and the Death Chamber.[24]

A new character in the film, Grawp, Hagrid's giant half-brother, came to life by a new technology called Soul Capturing, developed by Image Metrics. Instead of building the character from scratch, the movements and facial expressions of actor Tony Maudsley were used to model Grawp's actions.[25][24]

Though the producers explored options to film outside of the UK, Leavesden Studios in Watford was again the location on which many of the interior scenes, including the Great Hall, Privet Drive and Number Twelve, Grimmauld Place were shot.[3][26][27][28]

Locations in England included the River Thames, for the flight of the Order of the Phoenix to Number Twelve, Grimmauld Place, and the flight of Dumbledore's Army to the Ministry of Magic.[29] This sequence also includes such landmarks as the London Eye, Canary Wharf, Big Ben, Buckingham Palace, and the HMS Belfast.[30] Filming at Platform 9¾ took place at King's Cross Station, as it has in the past.[31] A telephone booth near Scotland Yard was used as Harry and Arthur Weasley enter the Ministry,[32] while the crew closed the Westminster tube station on 22 October 2006 to allow for filming of Arthur Weasley accompanying Harry to his trial at the Ministry of Magic.[33] Other scenes were filmed in and around Oxford,[34] specifically at nearby Blenheim Palace in Woodstock.[35]

Various locations around Scotland were used for exterior shots. Fort William was used to show 'snow-capped mountains and glens' vital for the opening sequence of the film.[36] In Glenfinnan, the Hogwarts Express crosses a viaduct, as it has in the past films.[37] Aerial scenes were shot in Glen Coe, in Clachaig Gully,[37] and Glen Etive, which, at the time of filming, was one of the few places in Scotland without snow, making it ideal for a backdrop.[36]

Several locations were used which do not appear in the final cut of the film. In Virginia Water, scenes were shot where Professor McGonagall recovers from Stunning Spells,[38] and Burnham Beeches was used for filming the scene where Hagrid introduces his fifth-year Care of Magical Creatures class to Thestrals.[39] Harry skips stones in front of Bonnie Prince Charlie's Monument in Glenfinnan in another cut scene.[37]

Casting began as early as May 2005, when Radcliffe announced he would reprise his role as Harry.[40] Across the media frenzy that took place during the release of Goblet of Fire (2005), most of the main returning actors announced their return to the series, including Grint, Watson, Lewis, Wright, Leung, and Fiennes.[41][42][43][44][45][46]

A number of characters new to the series appear in the film. Staunton announced she would be playing the major new role of Dolores Umbridge in October 2005,[47] and the announcements of the casting of the rest of the new characters to the series was spanned across 2006. Lynch won the role of Luna Lovegood over 15,000 other girls who attended the open casting call,[48] waiting in a line of hopefuls that stretched a mile long.[49] On 1 April 2006, Helen McCrory, who had been signed on to play Bellatrix Lestrange,[50] announced that she was three months' pregnant and had to withdraw from the film. On 25 May 2006 the BBC reported that Helena Bonham Carter would play the role instead.[51]

The inclusion or cutting of some characters sparked speculation from fans as to the importance of the characters in the final book of the series. In April 2006, representatives of Jim McManus said he would be playing Aberforth Dumbledore, Albus' brother and the barman of the Hog's Head, in which Harry and his friends found the D.A. A week later WB announced that the role was "very minor", allaying some of the speculation to the significance of the role, which, before the final book, was not even a speaking part.[52] MTV reported in October 2006 that Dobby, a house-elf who appeared in the second film, Chamber of Secrets (2002), and in the fifth book, would be cut, opening up "plot questions" as to how the role of the elf would be filled.[53] MTV also reported about a month before the release of the final book that Kreacher, the Black family's house-elf, was cut from the film in one draft of the script. However, after Rowling prodded the filmmakers to include him, saying, "You know, I wouldn't [cut him] if I were you. Or you can, but if you get to make a seventh film, you’ll be tied in knots", he was added back into the script.[54]

Other minor roles were cut with subsequent drafts of the script. At the U.S. premiere of Goblet of Fire, series producer David Heyman said that former Hogwarts professor Gilderoy Lockhart, played by Kenneth Branagh in Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets (2002), was in the first draft of the script for Phoenix.[55] However, neither Branagh nor the character of Lockhart appears in the final version. Tiana Benjamin was scheduled to return for the film in the role of Angelina Johnson, the captain of the Gryffindor Quidditch team, but she had to withdraw due to a commitment to playing Chelsea Fox in EastEnders. The character, as well as the entire Quidditch subplot, was ultimately cut from the film. She did, however, record sound clips for the Order of the Phoenix video game.[56]

The family of footballer Theo Walcott made a cameo role in the film. Theo himself was due to appear as well, though his commitments to Arsenal forced him to pull out.[57]

At 766 pages in the British edition and 870 in the American edition, Order of the Phoenix is the longest Harry Potter book in the series.[58] Screenwriter Michael Goldenberg described his task to cut down the novel as searching for "the best equivalent way to tell the story. My job was to stay true to the spirit of the book, rather than to the letter".[59] Goldenberg said that Rowling told him, the producers, and Yates that "she just wanted to see a great movie, and gave [them] permission to take whatever liberties [they] felt [they] needed to take to translate the book into a movie she would love".[59] Cutting down the book to meet the time frame of the film, Goldenberg explained, became "clearer when [he] figured out that the organizing principle of the screenplay was to narrate Harry's emotional journey".[59] He and Yates "looked for every opportunity to get everything [they] could in there. And where [they] couldn't, to sort of pay homage to it, to have it somewhere in the background or to feel like it could be taking place off-screen."[60]

One cut Goldenberg had to make, which he "hated" to do, was the absence of Quidditch, the wizarding sport.[60] "The truth is that any movie made of this book, whoever made it, that had included the Quidditch subplot would have been a lesser film," he said.[59] In the book, Ron grows as a character by trying out for the Quidditch team. "Ron facing challenges and coming into his own in the same way that Harry is, we tried to get that into the film in other ways, as much as possible. So, you feel like, if not the details of that story, at least the spirit of it is present in the film."[59] The change disappointed Grint who had been "quite looking forward to the Quidditch stuff."[61]

In a significant scene in the book, Harry sees a memory of his own father humiliating Snape in their school days, and Snape insulting his mother after she stood up for him. In the film, it is abbreviated to an "idea", in Goldenberg's words. "It's an iconic moment when you realize your parents are normal, flawed human beings. … Things get trimmed out, but I kept the meat of that in there — and that was what really gave me the coming-of-age story."[59] Young Lily Potter did not appear at all, but promotional screenshots show unknown teenager Susie Shinner in the role.[62]

The scene at St Mungo's, the hospital where Harry runs into classmate Neville Longbottom and learns that his parents were tortured into insanity by Bellatrix Lestrange, was cut because it required the construction of a new set.[59] The main purpose of the action of the scene was relocated to the Room of Requirement after one of the D.A. lessons. Also, in order to speed up the film's climax, several events in the Ministry leading up to Harry's battle with Voldemort were removed, including the brain room.[58] Mrs. Weasley's encounter with a boggart at Grimmauld Place followed suit.[61]

The character of Kreacher the house-elf, who was included in the script only at Rowling's request, has a larger part in the book than the film. In the novel, he is seen saving some of the Black family's artifacts which the Order of the Phoenix throw away, one of which is a locket which becomes extremely important in the seventh book.[63] "It was kind of tricky to raise that in our story, because it's for so much later," Yates said. "We figured we can probably introduce it later, and that's the approach we took".[54] Whilst Kreacher remained, all scenes involving Dobby were cut, and his important actions given to other characters.[58]

Rita Skeeter, the journalist played by Miranda Richardson in Goblet of Fire, was also removed. In the book, Hermione blackmails her into writing articles that support Harry as the rest of the wizarding world denies his claims.[58] Richardson noted that "it's never gonna be the book on film, exactly. … They'll take certain aspects from the book and make it something that they hope is going to be commercial and that people want to see."[64]

The first trailer was released on November 17, 2006, attached to another WB film, Happy Feet. It was made available online on November 20, 2006, on the Happy Feet website.[65] The international trailer debuted online on April 22, 2007 at 14:00 UTC.[66] On May 4, 2007, the domestic trailer was shown before Spider-Man 3.[67]

Two posters released on the Internet that showed Harry accompanied by six classmates, including Hermione Granger, generated some controversy by the media. They were essentially the same picture, though one advertised the IMAX release. In one poster, the profile of Hermione, played by Emma Watson, was made curvier as the outline of her breasts was enhanced. Melissa Anelli, webmistress of noted fan site The Leaky Cauldron, wrote:[68]

“ Emma Watson is playing a 15-year-old girl, and she herself is under 18. I get the full heebie jeebies thinking about the person who sat there thinking, 'Now, if we cinch her waist a bit, and inflate her bust a bit, and give her some dramatic lighting and more blonde hair, this would be a much better picture.' ”

Representatives for WB later wrote about the poster under fire, "This is not an official poster. Unfortunately this image was accidentally posted on the IMAX website".[69]

The video game version, designed by EA UK, was released June 25, 2007.[70] Lego produced just one set, a model of Hogwarts, the lowest amount of sets for a film so far.[71][72] NECA produced a series of action figures,[73] whilst a larger array of smaller figures was also produced by PopCo Entertainment, a Corgi International company.[74]

The film was the third Harry Potter film to be given a simultaneous release in conventional theatres and IMAX. The IMAX release featured the full movie in 2-D and the final 20 minutes of the film in 3-D.[75] According to estimates in March 2007, by Warner Bros., the film would debut on over 10,000 theatre screens during the summer.[76]

The film was released in most countries in a two-week period starting 11 July 2007. WB has tried to stick with day-and-date releases for most countries "except in the Middle East and a few minor markets, because most are going to be in holidays at that point". The set of summer releases, even though the films are typically released in the winter, "really maximizes our opportunity," said a representative for WB.[76]

Previews of the film began in March 2007 in the Chicago area.[77] Under tight security to prevent piracy, WB had security guards patrol the aisles, looking for cell phone cameras or small recording devices, at a preview in Japan.[78] The world premiere took place in Tokyo, Japan on 28 June 2007.[79] MySpace users could bring copies of their online profiles to gain free admission to sneak previews in eight different cities across the country on 28 June 2007.[80] The UK premiere took place on 3 July 2007 in London's Odeon Leicester Square, during which author J. K. Rowling made a public appearance.[81] The U.S. premiere took place on 8 July in Los Angeles.[82] After the premiere, the three young stars of the film series, Radcliffe, Grint, and Watson, were honoured with a ceremony where their handprints, footprints, and "wandprints" were placed in the cement in front of Grauman's Chinese Theatre.[83]

The film was released on the following dates in these major English-speaking countries:[84]

Originally, Warner Bros. set the Australian release date as 6 September 2007, nearly two months after the majority of other release dates. However, after complaints from the Australian community, including a petition garnering 2,000 signatures, the date was pulled back to 11 July 2007.[85] The release dates of the film in the UK and U.S. were also moved back, both from 13 July, to 12 July and 11 July, respectively.[86][87]

Even though the book is the longest in the series, the film is 138 minutes long, the shortest in the entire film series.[88] In the motion picture rating system, it was rated the equivalent of the U.S.'s PG-13, the UK's 12A, and Australia's M, although in Canada, the film was only rated PG, and G in Quebec. Reasons for the ratings were variations on "fantasy violence" and "dark themes".[89]

A 2-disc special edition DVD, as well as a fullscreen and a widescreen edition of the film was released on 12 November 2007 in the U.K., 14 November 2007 in Australia, and 11 December 2007 in the US and Canada, with the HD DVD and Blu-Ray Disc releases of the film occurring on the same date in each respective country.

Extras appearing on the DVDs include additional scenes, a feature trailing a day in the life of Natalia Tena, who played Nymphadora Tonks, an A&E documentary about the films and books, and a featurette on film editing in Phoenix. The DVD-ROM features a timeline and a sneak peek of the next film, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince (2008). The HD DVD and Blu-Ray contain additional features, such as the "in-movie experience", a video commentary in which members of Dumbledore's Army share their favourite moments from the production of the film, and "focus points" featurettes on how certain scenes of the film were made.[90][91]

There was also a third DVD with extras featuring a behind the scenes look at the sets of the movie. This can only be found in those purchased at Target stores as it is a Target exclusive. The package included a one-time-only code that activated a digital copy of the film, which may be played on a computer with Windows Media Player. The digital copy however is not playable on Macintosh or Apple iPod devices.

Reviews of the film are generally positive. The film currently holds a 77% "certified fresh" rating on Rotten Tomatoes. While this is indeed a positive score, it is the least favourably reviewed of the five Harry Potter films on the site.[92] The Telegraph headlined their review "Potter film is the best and darkest yet".[93] The New York Daily News gave the film four out of four stars, calling it the best Potter film yet and wrote that "die-hard Potter addicts will rejoice that Yates has distilled J. K. Rowling's broad universe with care and reverence."[94] The Sunday Mirror, giving the film four out of five stars, called it "a dark and delicious delight [and] a must-see movie".[95] The Miami Herald gave the film three stars out of four and wrote that the film "is the first installment in the soon-to-be series-of-seven that doesn't seem like just another spinoff capitalising on the money-minting Harry Potter brand name. Instead, Phoenix feels like a real 'movie'."[96]

Imelda Staunton's performance as Dolores Umbridge and Helena Bonham Carter's as Bellatrix Lestrange were widely acclaimed; Staunton was described as the "perfect choice for the part" and "one of the film's greatest pleasures", "com[ing] close to stealing the show".[97] Bonham Carter was said to be a "shining but underused talent".[98] Variety praised Alan Rickman's portrayal of Severus Snape, writing that he "may have outdone himself; seldom has an actor done more with less than he does here".[99] Newcomer Evanna Lynch, playing Luna Lovegood, also received good word from a number of reviewers including the New York Times who declared her "spellbinding".[100]

Rolling Stone also lauded the three principal actors' achievements, especially Radcliffe: "One of the joys of this film is watching Daniel Radcliffe grow so impressively into the role of Harry. He digs deep into the character and into Harry's nightmares. It's a sensational performance, touching all the bases from tender to fearful." Rolling Stone's review also classified the film as better than the previous four instalments in the series, by losing the "candy-ass aspect" of the first two and "raising the bar" from the "heat and resonance" of the third and fourth.[101]

The Times (London) expressed disappointment that the three main actors were not able to fully advance the emotional sides of their respective characters, weakening the film.[98] The San Francisco Chronicle complained about a "lousy" storyline, alleging that the first twenty minutes of the film, when Harry is put on trial for performing magic outside of school and threatened with expulsion, but is cleared of all charges, did not advance the plot.[102] The Hollywood Reporter wrote that Phoenix is "quite possibly the least enjoyable of the [series] so far," and that despite "several eye-catching moments", "the magic – movie magic, that is – is mostly missing." The review also criticised the underuse of the "cream of British acting", noting the brief appearances of Maggie Smith, Helena Bonham Carter, Emma Thompson, David Thewlis, Richard Griffiths, and Julie Walters.[103]

The film opened to a worldwide 5-day opening of $333 million, the third-biggest opening of all time, behind only Spider-Man 3 (2007) and Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End (2007). Both of those films opened in many more markets — Spider-Man 3 in 108 and At World's End in 103, respectively, compared to Potter's 45. In the United States, tickets for hundreds of midnight showings of the film, bought from online ticket-seller Fandango, were sold out, making up approximately 90% of the site's weekly ticket sales.[104] In the U.S. and Canada, midnight screenings (very early morning on 11 July) brought in $12 million[105] from 2,311 midnight exhibitions making the showings "the most successful batch of midnight exhibitions ever."[106] In one-night earnings, Phoenix is behind only At World's End, which had debuted four hours earlier on its date.[107]

In the U.S. and Canada, Phoenix earned an additional $32.2 million on Wednesday, post-midnight showings, making it the biggest Wednesday single-day gross in box office history, with a total of $44.2 million.[108] That amount tops Sony Pictures' Spider-Man 2, which had held the record since 2004 with its $40.4 million take on a Wednesday. It is also the fifth-biggest opening day for a movie in history, surpassing At World's End's $42.9 million. It earned $1.9 million from a record-breaking 91 IMAX screens, the highest opening day ever for any IMAX day of the week, beating Spider-Man 3's $1.8 million. In the U.K. the result was similar. The film made £16.5 million during its opening 4-day run, breaking the U.K. box office record for the biggest 4-day opening weekend ever.[109]
