First there&#8217;s the darker material filmed in a darker setting and a darker tone. Then there&#8217;s the growing up of the junior actors, both physically and professionally. It&#8217;s nice to see them less stiff after 2 movies. This make the movie flow with a less contrived feeling than before.<br \/>\nThen there&#8217;s the focus on Harry&#8217;s character, which cuts off screen time for most of the other characters. Magically strange though, it&#8217;s the past that drives the future, yet we get to know almost nothing new of it. Harry seems slightly more mature, and magic comes more easy to him, even to a point where you finally get the feeling he&#8217;s more special than the others (where the previous movie had the other characters do more magic than Harry)<br \/>\nThe changed actor (unfortunately, to replace the late Richard Harris)  for the Dumbledore  character might have been the hardest thing to swallow. With a whole other demeanor and style (which might be done intentionally ?), the change is too big to take it all at once. You will get used to it though.<br \/>\nThen there&#8217;s a short list of things that are the same. Character-wise, you learn almost nothing new. The story layout is mostly the same, but it&#8217;s still as enjoyable as before, even with less jokes to laugh at.8-.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There&#8217;s a long list of the most obvious changes.
