I love the idea of the movie. It left a little to be desired from a plot perspective and I'm still confused by the ending, but overall it was well-made and an enjoyable experience for a potterhead

Well just sat down and watched this movie, I really hope another will be made and soon. This was really loads better than i thought. I really enjoyed it. Thought has been put into this and also being fan made the quality was as good as most movies being made today. reading some of the other reviews i wanted to leave an honest opinion of this movie too. They seem to moan about story lines a lot, I didn't think the makes had done a bad job really. gave me flash backs to the books especially the Smith house. Without spoiling it. overall i rated this title highly because of a few things. Fan made, we all know how they can turn out. lol. Well this was different. brilliant cinematography, obviously had a really good director. Budget, I have no idea how much this cost to put into production but it looked expensive even though i am sure it wasn't. remember Twilight, low budget and you could tell, that took off and was a massive success well i hope this is just as big for the makers. they absolutely deserve it. well done. Please make more and i hope now that WB have seen it they stump up some cash to assist too.

This movie was really good, however, the movie was mostly flashbacks and some lip sync was off (I can let the sync slide because this is an Italian movie so it was dubbed over)

If you decide to watch the movie, and I recommend you to do so, do it as if you were about to watch a whole new thing. It is a branch of the original series, and it must NOT be taken too seriously regarding inconsistencies with the books. Pretty much all of the reviews I've read thus far are more than likely coming from those mad HP fans that won't accept anything slightly different from what they already know. Anyway, it's a must-watch, if you do it with an open mind and heart. in the begining, you'll feel a little confused, but that feeling will soon vanish as you keep watching. and the plot at the end. DUDE, that was awesome.

Good idea, congrats! Actors - not that good, but it is a low - budget movie, so not such a big deal. Good ending. Everything else - S U C K S! The storyline is not even good for a child's cartoon. They had the idea of creating a background movie for Tom Riddle, but they didn't have the story. Maybe they should have to wait for couple of months until they reveal the whole story. And did they even read the books? Congratulations on the idea, but the movie is not something any Harry Potter fan should watch. Just don't.... Why 5 stars? Because of the ending and because of the good idea they had.

This movie is incredible for a fan made movie. Some features are wierd including the camerwork but other than that it is amazing. If you are a harry potter fan I recommend to watch this.

Even though I thought this film would be way better and more fun I was -sadly- wrong. It wasnt fun at all. Although it started great with some really nice and to be honest beautiful actions scenes for a film with a budget that was out to prove that passion means more than money they failed to prove that. The story doesn't offer anything to the whole harry potter universe. The writers tried to make the whole movie something you wouldnt expect so you would stay focused but that didnt work there wasnt anything really unexpected not even the ending was really unexpected the fact that the heir's die is not a secret in this movie they though that it was and we the viewers did not know that. Another thing this movie failed to do successfully was the acting that was just plain bad. The actors really seems like they tried to do something there but they did not succeed they are not believable most dont feel their character and because of the way they act it might make you just to stop the film and close it because of the awkwardness. If it wasnt for the anticipation upon this film the good camera and an average editing ( Well some hours on after effects but lets not get into that) I wouldnt watch this film and if anyone would wanna watch they should but if they are not sure then they sure shouldn't. Personally I am really disappointed from it and especially from the people that made it and the public statements they made

Forget the poor acting and dialogue, I get that it was a budget film. What I don't get is that they say it was made by 'Fans' but I felt as though they had never even read the books. I understand that fan fiction branches out from the original works however I felt they made major changes that in essence would make the works of JK Rowling not make sense. Such as the flash back where Merope (I assume) is cradling a baby Tom Riddle whilst playing with the necklace......? Or the fact that in the original books, there was such heavy emphasis on the fact that Tom Riddle didn't have any friends, only followers, yet hes chilling out in the room of requirement with some kids? The whole plot revolved around the heirs searching for the heirlooms, well any worthy gryffindor would know that the sword would present itself to them if them were in need! This is just a few of the major plot holes, I feel as though they completely wasted their time and there is no excuse for a bad plot. Voldemort was born bad, peeps need to get over it!
