Top 25 Character of Harry Potter movies(20 to 16)

Top 25 Character of Harry Potter movies..(20 to 16)
 
 
20.
Horace Slughorn
20 Horace Slughorn first came to Hogwarts as a young boy and was sorted into Slytherin house. He proved an excellent student, excelling in Potions, which he would later return to the school to teach -- he instructed the likes of Tom Marvolo Riddle, Severus Snape, and Lilly Evans. It was Slughorn who taught Riddle about Horcruxes, information the twisted young man would later use to make himself immortal.

Slughorn is skilled, but has never been especially brave -- he attempted to live incognito in the Muggle world for many years to evade potential recruitment by Voldemort and his Death Eaters. And Slughorn even tries to hide from Dumbledore when the Headmaster comes calling on him to return to the school. The often bumbling Slughorn is also known for his propensity for living the good life, and he does not hesitate to exploit connections with former students who have gone on to lead successful careers to sustain his well-to-do lifestyle. Despite his many faults though, Slughorn is a good man - proof that just because you come from Slytherin, your path is not absolute.

Molly Weasley
19 Imagine the perfect, loving, giving mother – and then add magic. That's Molly Weasley for you. We love her husband Arthur as well, but Molly's treatment of Harry has always been a particularly wonderful part of the series. Harry is an orphan, treated horribly by his aunt and uncle – and his relationship with his godfather, Sirius, was tragically short. But since the day Harry met Molly, she's treated him like another son and given him the love, support, and yes, Christmas presents, he'd been lacking in his life.

While we're used to Molly as a lovably concerned (or amusingly chastising, if you're Fred and George), classic mother figure, she also has her own courage and strength to call upon – willingly risking herself as a member of the Order of the Phoenix. And when her children are threatened, well… Let's just say, if you haven't read the Deathly Hallows book, the Deathly Hallows Part 2 film has quite a moment in store for you.
Alastor "Mad-Eye" Moody

18.
18 Grizzled. If there's one word that could describe Alastor "Mad-Eye" Moody in a nutshell, it's "grizzled." One of the most renowned Aurors of all time, Moody was a fierce fighter for good in the First and Second Wizarding Wars. He'd lost an eye, which was replaced with a magical one, he has a wooden leg, and his face is covered with scars. His experiences in battle left him emotionally damaged as well -- paranoid, bitter, and eccentric.

In spite of his seemingly fragile mental state, the veteran Moody was convinced to come out of retirement by Dumbledore to serve as the Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher. But Moody was shortly attacked by Barty Crouch Jr., who would trap and subsequently impersonate him using polyjuice potion in service of Voldemort. The real Moody would go on to serve in the reformed Order of the Phoenix, faithfully protecting Harry Potter from Voldemort and his forces until he died in the line of duty, helping to protect Harry, in The Deathly Hallows Part 1.
 
17.
Minerva McGonagall
17 As the head of Gryffindor house and Deputy Headmistress of Hogwarts, Professor McGonagall can be a strict disciplinarian. She is quick to kick misbehaving students out of her class, and deduct house points when the situation warrants. But she can also be kind of like that cool aunt of yours -- the one who sometimes lets you get away with a bit of mischief. And that's what's so endearing about McGonagall.

She grew up attending Hogwarts and returned to the school as an adult to teach Transfiguration, under Headmaster Albus Dumbledore, who would later entrust her with the Deputy Headmistress position and serve with her in the Order of the Phoenix during the First Wizarding War. After the infant Harry Potter's defeat of Voldemort, McGonagall was one of the members of the Order who traveled to Privet Drive to leave the child in the care of the Dursley family whom she viewed as the "worst kind" of Muggles. She would later take Potter into her own house at Hogwarts and watch over him throughout his time there.

Dolores Umbridge
16 Oh, how we hate this woman... which is why she belongs on this list. J.K. Rowling really outdid herself when she created Dolores Umbridge. Voldemort is a terrific villain to be sure – but it could be argued that he never got under our skin like Umbridge did. Perhaps it's because Voldemort came in and out of Harry's life. His threat was ongoing, but he wasn't walking around the hallways of Hogwarts. But Umbridge? For one miserable year, she was a constant, miserable presence in Harry's life.

This is a woman who thinks the appropriate way to punish a student involves making him perform a ritual which, thanks to magic, causes him to bleed over and over again – one of many despicable acts. The fact that she spoke in a blatantly forced sing-song voice and wore gaudy pink clothing only added to her hideousness. Imelda Staunton does a great job playing this character, but it should be noted that as nasty as Umbridge is in the film, in the book, she's even worse – causing many a Harry Potter reader to feel true hate for this fictional character. Stephen King referred to Umbridge as "the greatest make-believe villain to come along since Hannibal Lecter."
