On the border of mockumentary and drama, Unscripted focuses on the lives of three struggling actors without the glamor and fake tension found in Hollywood or reality shows. The only connection between the three actors is an acting class they all attend, though they each go on their own acting endeavors.

The struggling and determination of what the characters go through truly touched me. Unscripted records the odyssey these people go through to make it big, from numerous dead end auditions to making ends meet. Instead of the actors discussing the latest Hollywood flick they starred in, they converse about the latest walk on role they had or which show hired them as a stand in. It isn't as cut throat as Greenlight, and truly allows the viewer to get in depth with the character and feel the struggle they're going through.

The film was absolutely amazing. Alfonso has worked his own magic to truly bring Harry Potter to life. The direction and cinematography were not at all hindered by Hollywood pressure, and this is by far one of the best major studio films I've seen. It is truly a brilliant piece of art.

If you are looking for great adaptation then I must say this is not it. But what was changed was all for the better. There was no mention or scenes of the Quidditch cup or final match, but you have the first too movies if you want Quidditch. For the scenery, parts of Hogwarts were different but with Alfonso's direction it was made to be absolutely brilliant.
