October 19, 2009Its important once in awhile to remind people that there is significant difference between maturity and just being really super moody. That is something that Yates should have asked before making "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince".
Now while I'll be honest in admitting I've...( read more) -
October 5, 2009"Why is it that whenever something bad happens, you three are involved?"
"I've been asking myself the same thing for 6 years".
So have I, Ron. So have I. After 6 movies of essentially the exact same story, with maybe a little more darkness and death in each installment, I've ...( read more) -
September 22, 2009Pretty entertaining. And darker than ever. Good thing I haven't become too attached to these people.

September 18, 2009I found this exciting and had a wow factor to alot. It was better than previous Potter films, obviously there is a lot uncovered but I think overall it was good. I am not too sure if I would want to watch this again and again but its certainly something I could stick on in the ba...( read more)

September 1, 2009Here is where the books start to take a really dark turn. I was so excited to see how this was brought to us on film and I must say I was...a bit disappointed.
It was a good movie, but I just did not live up to my expectations given the last several installments.
It felt as th...( read more) -

November 22, 2009This is without a doubt the worst Harry Potter movie! If you haven't red the book, the movie makes absoluty no sense. They picked all the best moments of the book, make scenes out of it and that's the movie. There is NO story.....And some of the most crucial parts of the books ar...( read more)

Dear me, what a dull fight this has become. At points in Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince I feared slipping into a persistent vegetative state. full review

Armond White, The New York Press
Astoundingly unimaginative, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince ruins the idea of popular entertainment. full review

Stephanie Zacharek, Salon.com
The Half-Blood Prince is a beautifully paced feat of filmmaking, one that navigates potentially choppy shifts in scale with grace and ease. full review

Peter Travers, Rolling Stone
Harry is better than ever, a triumph of visual wonder and emotional storytelling. full review

Colin Covert, The Minneapolis Star Tribune
Unlike most film series, the Potter movies haven't weakened along the way. full review

Moira MacDonald, Seattle Times
As its 2-½ hours came to a close, I was happy to be reminded that we aren't yet done with Hogwarts, and that there's much pleasure in a story slowly told. full review

Liam Lacey, Globe and Mail
The experienced team behind the Harry Potter movie series is comfortably in the groove with the sixth film, which plays down the fantastic elements and introduces contrasting playful teenaged romance ... full review

Steven Rea, Philadelphia Inquirer
Half-Blood Prince is a bubbling cauldron of hormonal angst, rife with romance and heartbreak, jealousy and longing. full review

Amy Biancolli, Houston Chronicle
So many actors shine in so many ways: Carter hisses deliciously, Broadbent sucks up beautifully. Watson shudders with frustration and heartbreak, Felton shudders with anger and fear. full review

September 4, 2009Harry Potter of the best movies ever made and I follow it since I was young, one of the great films and Part VI I liked a lot

August 30, 2009Wow...it's like the sole purpose of this movie is to tell you
"hey they hit puberty"
"hey, there's gonna be another movie"
"voldimort isn't dead yet"
That's...it...I remember the previews mentioning a "new magic" ? Or something... To call this movie flat and boring give it too much, there is NOTHING in this movie!
"The half blood prince" title makes you wonder, who is he? Where did he come from? What part does he play? What powers will he have? What is he a half blood of?
Guess what...nothing is told...in a dull fight scene where harry is overpowered by an older more experienced wizards (what else would happen) the guys just blurts out "I am the half blood prince"...and that's it.
There is NOTHING to this movie, it was beyond lame! -
August 29, 2009i saw the film in england,and maybe because i was home there i loved it,of course being in England and seeing an english film captivates the mind,i am ever mindful of the magic and mysticism of old england that i explore with my son like york ,and Wales we spent the week in Wales literally looking at witches and fairies in the shops,very Celtic,and one can then see all the stories and magic of the books and the movie,i got the impression that the movie is leading us on through the teenage and then grown up. part of childhood ending, and really seeing love and other people in depth like one does as you grow up ,all smooshed in with magic and hurt of loosing a loved one....and we all experience painful things as we grow older and realize that death is the end of a person the final chapter of the elders,but the begining of ones adulthood,it makes it'S point not done yet,for who will be Harrys first love?(Ginny)?and Ron can't quite see Hermoine yet swooning over him,ah ''teen love!! yeah?

I really enjoyed this film. It's a while since I read the book so the ramping up of the romantic storylines came as a bit of a surprise. The unfortunate event still got me thinking. Looking forward to the next instalments - meanwhile I think I'll read the books again!!!
-
August 22, 2009I read the book and really liked the movie. Films sometimes can be diferent from books and still be good! Sure, I had to watch it twice to know what happned there exactly but then I liked it. I also tryed to take some things I didn't like and focus on the best of this movie.

it wasn't very good. it would have been okay if u didnt read the book but having read it there was no epic fight scene at the end! plus they messed up the whole lucky potion deal and harry is supposed to be paralyzed underneath the cloak watching helplessly not pacing back and forth under the stairs argh! not like the technology is out of our reach here pplz.

August 15, 2009I am desperately after a copy of this movie. Even a burnt copy will do. Willing to swap other movies. If you have this movie, please message me.

July 29, 2009This movie was so much better than I expected, since, quite frankly, I was pretty unimpressed by The Order of the Phoenix.
Not only were the effects fantastic - I'm thinking mainly of the huge fire spell near the end, for any who've seen the film - and the acting a triumph from all concerned, but the storytelling was highly accessible to all members of the audience. Although the film managed to capture well the enroaching darkness pervading this penultimate tale in the series, I have to congratulate David Yates for still giving the film a lighter element, adding a sense of enjoyment to the dramatics whilst in no way detracting from the sinister suspense.
On a negative note, the film did rush towards the end and some important points from the book were cut. For instance, Fenrir Greyback's character was never really explained, and so relied heavily on the audience already having read the book.
Since I have to keep this comment short - go see this awesome piece of film-making!
