Puffs Filmed Live Off-Broadway Review Some Spoilers Might Be Ahead

Harry Potter fans i've reviewed alot of the films and even the script to the stage play but i've never reviewed or for that matter even watched a Harry Potter stage production before well now that has changed because i've just finished watching a stage production and here is my review of Puffs Filmed Live Off-Broadway.

The play basically retells the events of the books but it tells them from a different perspective that being from the point of view of several Hufflepuff students and it throws in a comedic twist. I admit when i first downloaded the play I had no idea what to expect so it wasn't very high on my list of things to watch but after watching a clip of it online it shot right up there and while there might not be a story which to me is fine because if you want the story you can just read the books or see the films it's worth watching just to see what they add to it.

Since the cast list is so small each actor is playing at least two roles so starring in the play we have Madeline Bundy as Suzy , Jessie Cannizzaro as Sally , Anna Dart as Hannah , Alex Haynes as J.Finch , Reginald Keith Jackson as Oliver , Sonia Mena as Meghan , Andy Miller as Leanne , Zac Moon as Wayne and Harry Waller as The Narrator. 

I admit I wasn't expecting the cast to be any good in fact I would have just settled for OK but in truth the cast is pretty good there really good when it comes to the comedy and while they don't really get the emotional moments they do there best with them and for me that's enough but i also have a feeling that they could have done better with those moments if the script allowed for it.

Considering that this is a stage production they get alot of cinematic angles i'm not sure if that's because they were filming something so they had the crew for it or what but there are shots in here which look really good. Even tho the premise of this play basically follows all of the books they do manage to add in there own storyline there's one that starts near the end of what would be the first book and it has a really good pay off.

Now just because this focuses on a different bunch of characters doesn't mean that the more well known characters don't make an appearance and it's really fun to see how those characters get represented i'm not going to say how there presented in this production but if you ever do see this you will laugh at how the represent Ron and i personally love what they did with Cedric I thought it was really funny and yet at the same time something that i'd never thought of.

I don't think this needs saying since they do all seven of the books but incase you guys think of it as a spoiler i've thrown up the old spoiler warning. They do the Battle Of Hogwarts and while there are jokes added in there it's mainly treated as a serious issue and i'll be the first to say I didn't expect them to do the battle at all so when it started I was really surprised by it heck they even do a spin on the harry and Dumbeldoor scene from the final book which was really funny.

There's alot of jokes in this play and all of them are really funny I don't think there was ever a time where I wasn't laughing out loud they even throw in a pretty funny Fantastic Beasts reference and a Doctor Who reference in the same scene. One of the jokes that really caught me of guard but at the same time was really freaking funny was learning who did the sex ed class at Hogwarts i'm not going to spoil but the first person you think of when you think of sex ed at Hogwarts is exactly who it is.

Overall if you ever get the chance I suggest you go and order the DVD which you can get from puffs the play . com no spaces it really is worth it because it's so funny and since this is basically a fan made thing i'm not going to give this a rating.
