Went to see the new movie today. My husband and daughter liked it and I was on the fence. It was beautifully filmed and exciting at times. I guess if you are into HP you should like it.

I loved this review on the BBC website from Felix aged nearly 9 3/4 years.

Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince is a very scary film with a lot of surprises.
The sound effects are really good, with brilliant music changing all the time. All the special effects are excellent, such as really realistic fire in two parts of the film.
It also had amazing graphics: Hogwarts had every tiny detail and was really clear. The film missed out a lot from the book but added quite a bit!
The Half-Blood Prince is probably the best Harry Potter film made. It has plenty of everything, but maybe a bit too much kissing.

The film was not nearly as good as the book but I liked it.

LOL! I forgot about the kissing. My 8yo daughter wasn't scared in the scary parts, but she covered her eyes during every kissing scene and theere were lots of those. There was only one scene that made me jump.

I didn't read the book. Not really a HP fan.

Ditto, Mappy! whoa unbelievable What's wrong with you people???? Wink

Seriously, I really liked this movie! The special effects in the Harry Potter movies are outstanding; HOWEVER, movies rarely (in my opinion) measure up to the books on which they're based. It's just impossible to include that kind of detail in a two-hour (or so) movie.

I'm not a fantasy, sci-fi, vampire, mystical fan. I tend to like realism, independant films, good chick flicks or edgy movies. I just went to the movie in order to spend time with my family. It was beautifully made, and I have seen far worse. I would imagine that HP fans would love it. I noticed that Emma Watson and Daniel Radcliffe are growing up to be very good looking kids.

Now my husband and daughter watch DVDs of Buffy the Vampire Slayer(which he had to stop when it started getting to racy:), Lord of the Rings, Sarah Jane Chronicles, all the Harry Potter etc. Not my cup of tea.

I love everything you love plus sci-fi, fantasy, vampire, etc. Guess I am what they'd call 'easy' boob shake

Oh yeah, me too. McDonald's (you don't even have to super size it) and a bottle of Boones Farm Strawberry Wine. Heck, I don't even need to see the prerequisite movie.

LMAO
