Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix is a 2007 film directed by David Yates and based on the fifth novel in the Harry Potter series by J.K. Rowling. The movie stars Daniel Radcliffe as Harry Potter, Emma Watson as Hermione Granger, and Rupert Grint as Ron Weasley. The film is set in the wizarding world of Great Britain, and follows Harry as he tries to convince his fellow students and the wizarding community at large of the return of the evil wizard Lord Voldemort.

In the movie, Harry is back for his fifth year at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. However, his summer has been anything but magical. After the events of his fourth year, the magical world remains divided on whether Voldemort has truly returned. The Ministry of Magic, headed by Cornelius Fudge, is doing everything it can to deny the Dark Lord's existence, and even begins to smear Harry's reputation in an attempt to silence him.

Upon arriving at Hogwarts, Harry discovers that the school is now under the control of Dolores Umbridge, a vicious and power-hungry Ministry employee. Umbridge and her cronies institute a series of increasingly restrictive policies, such as banning students from practicing magic outside of class, which threaten the freedom of the students at Hogwarts. The new administration also refuses to teach the students the skills they will need to fight Voldemort and his Death Eaters, turning a blind eye to the looming danger.

Together with his friends Hermione and Ron, Harry forms "Dumbledore's Army," a secret group of students who practice magic and prepare themselves for the coming struggle against Voldemort. As tensions rise between the Ministry and Dumbledore's supporters, the truth about Voldemort's return becomes more and more difficult to ignore. Harry and his beloved godfather, Sirius Black, are also plagued by visions and eerie dreams, which all point to a dark and lethal connection between the Dark Lord and Harry.

The Order of the Phoenix is a tense and thrilling adventure that sees Harry and his friends take a stand against evil in the face of overwhelming opposition. As ever, the central trio of young actors deliver strong performances, and are joined by a host of talented veterans like Imelda Staunton as the thoroughly unpleasant Dolores Umbridge and Gary Oldman as Sirius. The film also marked the introduction of the character of Luna Lovegood, played by Evanna Lynch, who would go on to become a fan favorite in later installments.

The movie features stunning visual effects and dazzling set pieces, with the climactic battle between Dumbledore's Army and the Death Eaters being particularly impressive. The soundtrack, composed once again by the great John Williams, captures the tension and drama of the story.

Overall, Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix is a strong addition to the franchise. It tackles complex themes like authoritarianism, propaganda, and political corruption, while still delivering plenty of magical spectacle and action. With a great cast and a compelling story, this film will keep you on the edge of your seat from start to finish.

Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix is a thrilling, emotionally charged film that delivers on all fronts. From its stunning visuals to its powerful themes, it is a must-see for fans of the series and lovers of fantastic cinema alike.

Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix is a 2007 adventure movie with a runtime of 2 hours and 18 minutes. It has received mostly positive reviews from critics and viewers, who have given it an IMDb score of 7.5 and a MetaScore of 71.
