This movie was pure crap. Yes, the acting was pretty good, but the story was butchered and gutted. They turned Harry Potter into an dramatic teen romance story to appeal to the major audiences that like that crap. It's pathetic. At best, this movie deserved a low rental. I would give it a "Some Old Bullsh*t" or even a "F*ck you". David Yates has destroyed the Harry Potter films.

This was good, I don't know that I can rank it because it is the 1st section of a 2 section movie, because it was one book. I may be biased though because I really love the book series and love watching how they are transformed into movies. >Movie Questions

How I rank the Harry Potter films: 1.Goblet of Fire (perfect setting, a few laughs, great action scenes, and Voldemort is awesome!) 2.Chamber of Secrets (Has a charm, great music, fantastic set design, and great action scenes) 3.Sorcerer's Stone (Everything from CoS except for the action scenes; they were OK) 4.Order of the Phoenix (Meh... it was OK. Some things were left unexplained, but those things in particular weren't that important. The action scenes were awesome, though.) 5.Half-Blood Prince (Lacks action, but still a little dramatic, as well as humorous.) 6.Prisoner of Azkaban (One of the most overrated films ever! It's brief, dull, and unappealing.) I'd give Half-Blood Prince a Matinee.

I generally don't mind it when a movie is made from a book, and has to cut a bit out. Lord of the Rings wasn't too bad, it certainly seemed to be better than most others including the animated version that I fondly remember from years back. But when a movie almost throws away any real character development, plot development, and any coherency in the movie itself...that's a complete mistake. I didn't mind, even enjoyed the first few, but when it came to Goblet of Fire and where it made absolutely NO sense if you took the movie by itself, what's the point? The latest one, the subject of this review, watches like an incoherent montage of special effects scenes mixed with a whole load of fanservice, as it's more about sexuality than the plot/setting. Sweet statutory, what the hell did they do to the plot? So many details were changed from the books, and apparently for special effects and eyecandy reasons, that some things simply become annoying to lots of viewers who have read the books at length. They spend less time enjoying the movie and more time comparing what was omitted or lost (minor points can be omitted, but major ones should be kept), and to me that seems to be a failure in presentation when many of these points are vital to character/plot development. It's like they ran into "Uh, guys, you realise we only have 15 minutes left of movie time..." "Oh, crap, that's right, we have to kill off Dumbledore!" If they kept mostly faithful to the source material - cool. If they aren't going to bother, then what's the point? Ah, yes. Cash-in. I seriously doubt that any Harry Potter fan, of either book or movie, would mind a 3 hour treat. Instead, it comes across as an adolescent soap opera with magic and special effects, running far longer than such material should.

I really liked this film and it was a great HP film in my oppinion......i honestly disliked the last one -_- So im going with a Full Price

i really liked this movie until the ending they set everything up perfectly and then they decided that they didnt care about how the movie ended i think this is a very very very very low matinee and a very very very very high rental

"When Does This Madness End?!"

I have to agree, if we satisfied everyone, we'd all eat each other in the movie. But at the same time there are a few things in these books that you really do have to get into these movies. Like Kory said, at the end of the book there is this almost epic event that nearly destroys the castle and that was not there. That pissed me off the most about the movie. Now I can get that it's a setup movie for the last two-parter movies. But at the same time there are important things that keep getting cut out. But you can't please everyone. Personally though I would have gone with a Rental. The acting was great, but it was just not the same thing as the others or many of the other movies you might see over the summer.

I thought they did a pretty good job out of the movie this time. I enjoyed the new emotional direction it takes and i def think that the acting has improved, now that Radcliff and Grint have grown into their roles more. Its hard to cram everything into 2.5 hours though, so big details are missing. My advice: read the books beforehand!

1 of the best reviews ive seen great job! also you guys are right, where the hell were the teachers arent they supposed to keep these horny motherfuckers off eachother and in class? btw i thought the ending was a not bad ending. i love a sad ending.

Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince was fun to watch. Lots of comedy and romance plus the jealousy factor of Hermione to Ron Weasley's I-forgot-the-name-who girl. It was also mixed with drama in the end when Dumbledore died after the Half-Blood Prince (Snape) casts the spell "Avada Kedavra". That was a very sad ending yet the whole movie was great! I love it so much! Hope the next sequel (Part 7) of this movie will be better than the other previous sequels. ___________________ >bratz games

Cant Wait until the next 2 movies there making the 7th book into 2 movies

August 01, 2009 at 10:29 AM, jose castillo said ...

what the hell. i know they gotta compress these huge books into 2hr movies. but why of all the stuff in the book did they take away what seemed like a huge war in the end! i would have let go the fact that they just half assed the plot of this movie if i would have just seen the ending that was in the book. I agree with carlyle, It just seems like a alli oop for the last movie. i paid full price and the visuals and my geekside made it worth it.

This movie wasn't as good as the other Harry Potter movies but it was good i give it - full price

I agree with CoHost about the ending. It was kind of underwhelming. But other than that, I give this movie a Full Price!
