Harry potter & the half blood prince ~~ MOVIE

[gryboy09]

well my favorite scene in the book, where the prime minister and the minister of magic both meet and discuss stuff.

I loved that scene in the book b/c it was really the only time magic and muggles were shown.

the burrow pissed me off b/c in the 7th book there is supposed to be a wedding there

Just got back from seeing it as it happens. Now, while I haven't read the book, I found the film to be very flat and it did seem rather lacking in content, just served as a build up to the final 2 films if anything IMO.

Still, enjoyable enough though

I remember thinking while I was reading it that book 6 wasn't the best one in the series, so I'm not THAT surprised that it didn't turn into a great film either. Nothing really happens that advances the plot, until the very end, so 2 and a half hours is about an hour too long imo.

The things that DID impress me about the movie are: the restraint used in special effects (there were only a couple of big effects scenes) and the improvement in Daniel Radcliffe's acting - he was much more convincing in this movie than any of the others for me.

But aside from that, that's kind of it. It's pretty forgettable.

It will in all probability still happen... The movies portray dumbledore cleaning up slughorn's home with one simple movement of his wand, so I think a whole family of wizards could tackle a somewhat crispy house

omfg. so much was left out. ill admit i laughed the most in this movie compared to any of the ohters, but so much was left out as usual. he books will always be better.

oh yeah did anyone else think they had the most awkward moments ever!

dumbldore "Harry looks like you haven't shaved"

another scene

harry "she has really nice skin. It's a contributing factor to her attraction"

There was no Fluer, which also means there was no epic good vs. bad scene at the end.

I guess I'm alone on this one in saying I really enjoyed the film. I saw it opening night and it kept my attention throughout.

I have yet to see the 6th movie. I doubt I will. I gave up on them after the 3rd, compared to the books they are absolute trash.

book s and movie were both horrible. Would not recommend them
