Default Harry Potter Franchise

Alright so I really enjoyed the first 2 films... didnt like the next 2 so much bust also dont remember too much... Im thinking of watching the 5th one in but really am trying to remember if it is important I see 3 and 4 again first so I can be accurate in my opinion. Is there a lot of continauty (how the hell do you spell that or is it like the Bond films?

Thanks!

It is spelled continuity. I have only watched the first two Potters myself, so I am no help on your other question.

There is a level of continuity, and you do need to remember events from the third and fourth films for the fifth film (or else you will just be confused). They don't retell the plot like some films do either of prior films and expect you to remember.

Bingo they don't go back at all to explain things. I say is a must for you to remember becuase you are going to be lost IMO.

I agree with the others here. It isn't like the Bond films save for the most recent 2 which are one storyline. The series is basically a long epic like Lord of the Rings with the convinience of being slip up by years of school. Maybe 24 is a better example, that has convinience too "They said it will happen within the hour" Everything happens within an hour lol.

To sum it up, you can get one of the later films but it REALLY helps to see the others.

i agree that the first 2 potter films are by far the best. they're the only ones that show Harry as Harry. he is excited to be at hogwarts. he has the "gee, this magic stuff is neat" smile. after, that he shows up to hogwarts like Peter showing up to work in office space. part 3 was ok, but 4-5 were mediocre.
