I have watched all of the Harry Potter movies and I have enjoyed them tremendously. I feel that when we watch a movie, we have to keep in mind, just that, it is a movie and secondly that movies almost always relate to eveyone in some way - special or otherwise.
What I brought out of the theatre with me, after the movie, was that it was a good movie, done very well and the actors portrayed their roles magnificently [well that is my opinion].
Secondly, the movie revealed that when life places you in very difficult situations, sometimes by choice and other times by circumstances, if we meet the given situation or circumstance, with a positive attitude, eventhough, we may not ’fit the bill’, we have a fighting chance to succeed. Further, I believe that whatever good that is in us, even though we may not know it, comes to our aid, when we least expect it.
Harry was not of the age to compete, however, due to the ulterior motives of the Dark Lord, he was placed in that situation for a sinister purpose. However, being the good person that he is, his parents come to his aid to help him battle the Dark Lord, and he succeedes.
So in conclusion, eventhough the movie might be about fiction, what it unfolds and presents to us, is very true to life and one that which we can learn from and gain strength from, especially during our most difficult times.
