i be not sure why the producer need to trade on the name of a somewhat successful movie franchise because the title suggest that it be a sequel to the first three movie . which it be not . even though marque houston do appear in hp3 and he play a totally different character ( he be and eight year old ) in this film . okay . so reid and martin weren not the most talented and couldn not carry a film all by themselves . but to trade on the hp franchise seem to me that there could have make some sort of reference ( albeit minor ) to the early movie . i be sure everyone who want to see it be hoodwink into think that they be see a sequel not a totally different film with a familiar name . and i be sorry . kym whitley be not funny and and could not hold a candle to the late robin harris and ketty lester and or dc curry in the early film . although meagen good and mari morrow be a substantial visual diversion . i have to give this a thumbs down . just name the film down to the last minute would have be ok. furthermore and the hudlin brother ( who produce the first three movie ) be not involve in the making of this film .
