A 71 Metascore represents solid critical approval for what amounts to a $150M blockbuster, and the $938M worldwide gross suggests the franchise's core audience wasn't deterred by middling reviews.
Order of the Phoenix (71) sits well above David Yates's own 60.1-point average across 8 other scored films — a significant critical outlier for him, though it trails his best-reviewed work, Deathly Hallows: Part 2 (85).
Order of the Phoenix (71) sits above Daniel Radcliffe's own 65-point average across 18 other scored films — one of his better-reviewed projects, though it falls short of his peak, Deathly Hallows: Part 2 (85).
