Harry Potter & The Half-Blood Prince

Fri Aug 21, 2009, 7:56 PM
  • Mood: Wow!
  • Listening to: -I Did It My Way (Northern Kings' Rock Cover)
  • Reading: The Fellowship of the Ring
  • Watching: Harry Potter & The Half-Blood Prince
  • Playing: Computer
  • Eating: Nothing
  • Drinking: Some Coke
Right, Half-Blood Prince, just saw it. Now for a movie it was quite good. Jim Broadbent made a great Slughorn with a slight accent on him too. Also I feel Snape didn't get enough screentime really, but that can be excused, because every minute he was on screen he was great. And Daco was great in the film.

Bellatrix was awesome in this film. Helena-Bonham Carter is just simply amazing as Bellatrix & continues to make her mind-blowingly mental everytime !

One of the things I didn't like, was, how they cut out Dumbledore's Funeral, now that's awful. Cutting the battle I can understand, but the Funeral. I wanted to see a Phoenix fly into the sky, whilst people dried their eyes at the sight of Dumbledore's Corpse with a faint noise of 'I Did It My Way' - By Frank Sintra playing in the background.

It Didn't happen. Oh Well, Dumbledore was still great. And the scene where he drank the posion was well acted. And I like the way they had Harry himself overhear Snape & Dumbledore's conversation.

Two other slight problems I had. Firstly Harry & the Trio ending the movie at the Top of the Astronomy Tower, Where not even a day ago DUMBLEDORE WAS KILLED - In the Books, after that, Harry wouldn't even return to Hogwarts, nevermind stand on the exact spot Dumbledore flew over whilst falling to his death.

Secondly, Emma Thompson did not return to play Trelawny.
While they sidestepped this well in the Films. I would really have enjoyed it if she had returned, since this is the book in which she has the largest role & most use yet, but instead she opted to leave the role to work on Nanny McPhee, oh well, I'm not happy about that but It's her decision.

Overall the film was great. And Deathly Hallows looks to be even better, because it's split in two parts (between where the Snatchers get Harry & co to Malfoy Mannor) they're cramming in as much cameos as they can, for example extending Dumbledore's amount of scenes, and making all the little characters appear, as opposed to the earlier films, where minor characters would be side-stepped due to time constraints.

Me too, he's written some proper goof ones already though, so I think he'll produce a cracking series!
