Was it just me, or did Cho seem to be too young? She's supposed to be older (and taller) than Harry and she looked to be neither in the movie.

Thoughts comments?

I thought she looked like one of the older actresses/actors, easily older than Radcliffe.

No, I thought she looked just right. She was only supposed to be one year older than Harry. And actually, the actress was two years older than him.

ya, but in the books she's taller than her, and she just seemed...young.

I agree that the actress did a wonderful job (and the WB destroyed her character by makeing her be the rat instead of her friend)

I think she looked adequately old enough... But as few have said, not tall enough.

I don't know, maybe it's just the girlish way her character was portrayed made her seem far younger than she is supposed to be?

Perhaps - although she looked like she new how to kiss...

But ya maybe if she'd been taller she would have appeared older. I know that she looked WAY too young for Cedric.

They didn't.. In the Order of the Phoenix film, Umbridge made her drink Veritaserum. Clearly, not Cho's fault.

In the book it's Cho's friend who rats on Harry and the DA - not Cho herself, and it doesn't involve any Veritaserum. So WB (Warner Brothers) botched the story.

And I must make a NOTE: Cho is ment to be shorter than Harry in PoA - I haven't figured out if she's supposed to be taller in the other books yet.

She's first described as "A head shorter than Harry," so she's definitely not taller than him by any means. She did seem a bit young though...
