emilyhays 's review for:
Harry Potter and the Cursed Child - Parts One and Two
by Jack Thorne, John Tiffany, J.K. Rowling
sittin' in the middle on this one. will review in full later...
August 28th:
I'm gonna give this a 2.5/5 stars, right in the middle. For what this was worth, I enjoyed it! After JUST finishing the Harry Potter series for the first time, I didn't find the character to be out of character as much as everyone else has seemed to, and i think that's because they're not as built up in my mind... I haven't even watched all the movies yet! I do however, agree with what people are saying about Ron; his character felt whittled down to comic relief, when we know he is more complex than that.
There's a lot I have to say about it being a script and the tropes that go on with plays that no one (that I've seen) has mentioned. I think the plot felt reused. The idea of [POTENTIAL SPOILER WARNING] going back in time to try to change something and then changing present-day feels way too familiar; something the Disney channel would do, not a plot JK Rowling would write.
I did love the relationships, and seeing the characters we know and love in their adult lives, and how all they done as affected their future-selves. I also loved the ending scene in the church... that's all I'll say about that.
