Opinions on this review I wrote for Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix?!
Question: It’s been 15 years since Harry Potter, our favorite boy wizard, discovered he was magic and he’s already defeated his worst enemy on several occasions. How many 15 year olds can say that? This movie was definitely worth the money to see. One reason I liked this movie so much was that it stayed true to the book (for the most part anyways) also the effects were excellent! The “thestrals” (flying black horses) looked so life-like I thought they were real! The director did a great job. The script, well, it could have been better, but overall it was a wonderful movie and I think everyone should see it.

I'd like some comments on what I can do to make this better please

You need a lot more detail about the film. The review is too short and doesn't really impart how the flick made you feel. How do you know the director did a great job? What could have been better about the script? Why do you think everyone should see it? These are questions a good review will answer.
its nice that you should add a bit more to the movie like what made it different from the other movies... other than that, its okay...
This starts off well, but is limited in the scope of a review. I would add the following:
- notes on the acting e.g. Daniel Radcliffe's ability to slip into Harry's skin as the angry teenager or new actors such as Umbridge, Lestrange, Luna
- coming of age: romance in the movie, Harry's leadership of DA
- the lighter moments e.g. Weasley twins' farewell fireworks
