WHAT AN ABSOLUTELY DARK AND THRILLING HOGWARTS RETURN! Harry Potter and the order of the Phoenix Movie Reaction & Review with Roxy Striar and Jon Maturan! With the magical Wizarding World franchise remaining a massive cinematic staple and fans constantly revisiting the classic fantasy films, we are diving deep into the movie vaults to break down the incredible tension, growing stakes, and massive tonal shift of the fifth installment: Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix. Harry Potter 5 Full Movie Uncut Watch Along: https://www.patreon.com/thereelrejects - HARRY POTTER & the Goblet of Fire: https://youtu.be/D4WonyFbWX8 - HARRY POTTER Prisoner of Azkaban Reaction: https://youtu.be/EHDpdDbyjR8 - HARRY POTTER and the Sorcerer's Stone Reaction: https://youtu.be/EsyVBHr-UN0 - HARRY POTTER and the Chamber of Secrets Reaction: https://youtu.be/KmQxlzLRu34 Support The Channel By Getting Some REEL REJECTS Apparel! https://www.rejectnationshop.com/ In this full movie review and reaction, Roxy and Jon unpack the high-stakes journey as Harry faces isolation and a massive smear campaign from the Ministry of Magic. We break down the stellar performances of the legendary cast, including Daniel Radcliffe (The Woman in Black, Swiss Army Man) displaying his matured growth as Harry Potter, Emma Watson (Beauty and the Beast, The Perks of Being a Wallflower) as the brilliant Hermione Granger, and Rupert Grint (Knock at the Cabin, Servant) as a fiercely loyal Ron Weasley. We also highlight the phenomenal presence of Gary Oldman (The Dark Knight, Oppenheimer) returning as Sirius Black, and Imelda Staunton (The Crown, Maleficent) in her chillingly unforgettable role as the pink-clad tyrant Professor Dolores Umbridge. Our hosts react to every iconic, intense, and jaw-dropping sequence that this dark fantasy milestone has to offer. We break down the frantic Dementor attack in Little Whinging, the introduction of the scarier house-elf Kreacher at the secret Order headquarters, and Harry's stressful full disciplinary hearing at the Ministry of Magic. We unpack the deeply unsettling introduction of Dolores Umbridge, the horrifying physical toll of the blood quill detention scene, the emotional firing of Professor Trelawney on the courtyard grounds, and the inspiring birth of Dumbledore's Army inside the hidden Room of Requirement. From meeting the eccentric Luna Lovegood to the group practicing defensive spells like Expelliarmus and Stunning, this cinematic chapter leaves our hosts with an absolute frenzy of world-building and narrative shifts to look back on. As we continue our ultimate Harry Potter retrospective movie marathon, we are evaluating the incredible direction, pacing, and emotional weight that set the foundation for the ultimate wizarding war. #HarryPotter #OrderOfThePhoenix #HarryPotterReaction #ReelRejects #DanielRadcliffe #DoloresUmbridge #SiriusBlack #DumbledoresArmy #HermioneGranger #LunaLovegood #Hogwarts #WizardingWorld #MovieReaction #WatchAlong #FirstTimeWatching #nostalgia Follow *Roxy Striar* YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TheWhirlGirls Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/roxystriar/?hl=en Twitter: https://twitter.com/roxystriar Follow *Jon Maturan* Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jonmaturan/?hl=en 00:00 Checking Inn 1:43 Harry Potter and the order of the pheonix Reaction 1:16:30 Harry Potter and the order of the pheonix Review Intense Suspense by Audionautix is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ RR Clips & Shorts Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@ReelRejectsClips Follow TheReelRejects On The Socials: IG: https://www.instagram.com/reelrejects/ TT: https://www.tiktok.com/@thereelrejects?lang=en TWITTER: https://twitter.com/thereelrejects FB: https://www.facebook.com/TheReelRejects/ Music Used In Ad: Hat the Jazz by Twin Musicom is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Happy Alley by Kevin MacLeod is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Supervising Producer: https://twitter.com/nerdchronic?lang=en Co-Editor: Greg Alba Music In Video: Airport Lounge - Disco Ultralounge by Kevin MacLeod is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Follow & Listen to Us Wherever You Get Your Podcasts!! - Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3XHMwbveiznxSOGxN9XT0M - Google Podcasts: https://podcasts.google.com/feed/aHR0cHM6Ly9mZWVkcy5tZWdhcGhvbmUuZm0vc3Rhci13YXJzLXRhbGs - Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-reel-rejects-tv-movie-recaps/id1616339990 - Audible: https://www.audible.com/pd/The-Apocalypse-Podcast/B08JJP58FG PLAYLISTS: Movie Reviews https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL-bIhJVeYWw-comtadVs8b9JsZEWHUyr8 Youtube Video Reactions & Discussions https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL-bIhJVeYWw_qwcPsN_vOxXC6IVzrOQYG

Fun fact: Stephen King has hailed Umbridge as "the greatest make-believe villain to come along since Hannibal Lecter." 💜

Neville 's parents were tortured into insanity by Belatrix and Crouch Jr with the Cruciatus Curse. That's why Neville was so upset when Moody ( really Crouch Jr) used the Cruciatus Curse on the spider. The Longbottoms were heroes who never revealed secrets under torture but they are permanently hospitalized and don't even recognize Neville, a Fate worse than death

Dumbledore IS that strong. He’s one of the most powerful wizards written. And the only one Voldemort was afraid of

I cant believe so many reactors say "Harry go help Dumbledore" against Voldemort after watching what he can do, that duel is waaaaaaaaaay beyond anything Harry could ever immagine, he would get sent to the hospital in a tuna can

(32:06) Ooh, strong disagree, guys. I love how his face was made out of the pieces of burning wood in the previous movie. This looks like it is just a projection onto the flames, which feels a lot cheaper and less magical to me.
