Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix is classified as an Adventure/Fantasy movie. It came to theater on July 11 of 2007 and was released on DVD the 11th of December that same year. The film earned a PG-13 rating for sequences of fantasy violence and frightening images.
This PG-13 rating of Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix is shared by the movie preceding it (Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire.) The first three films of the series were only rated PG. For both of these movies, the PG-13 was earned during the last twenty minutes. Still, there are a few scenes prior to that which some parents may consider too intense for very young children. You may wish to skip over these scenes while watching on DVD.
There are a few instances of blood and death in Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix. In a few ways, it is the darkest of the films yet. However, it is considered a family movie and certainly falls under the tamer spectrum of the PG-13 rating. The Two-Disc Special Edition DVD also includes the opportunity for viewers to edit camera angles, music, and sound effects of a scene. Families may really enjoy this additional feature as it introduces children to the magic behind filmmaking.
