Leave your thoughts about Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince.
| Windy City TimesRichard KnightLike last year's big summer masterpiece, The Dark Knight, this is one action spectacular that adds an undercurrent of unease to the witches brew as it's delivering one thrilling sequence after another. |
| The Sun (UK)The SneakThe hero wizard still has enough magic to make his blockbuster rivals disappear. The Half-Blood Prince is so great that it nudges out The Goblet Of Fire as the best Potter movie. |
| CinerinaKarina MontgomeryMerlin's pants, what a fine motion picture! Steve Kloves is back and it makes all the difference in the world. This was a fantastic adaptation of an excellent book, and well worth your time and money. |
| WaffleMovies.comWillie Wafflemore exciting, more daring, more dangerous and more focused on the personal lives of the characters than any one before it, which is why it is so great. |
| Gazette (MD)Jeffrey Lylesdefinitely the best of the series and is easily the one summer blockbuster that delivers everything Potter fans could expect and more. |
| Journal and Courier (Lafayette, IN)Bob BloomThe emphasis in the film ... is off-kilter, with too much time spent on the romantic entanglements of Harry and his friends Hermione and Ron. |
| eFilmCritic.comPeter SobczynskiFunny, enchanting, occasionally creepy and beautiful to look at, this is the kind of full-blooded fantasy filmmaking that used to emerge when filmmakers were more interested in telling stories than in selling Happy Meals. |
| Film Journal InternationalDoris ToumarkineThis latest, more mature installment in the "prince" of franchises should prove to be one of the strongest, as better plotting, pacing, effects and always delicious Brit cast tempt more elders to join the kid masses. |
| Heart 106.2Simon ThompsonAn impressive film that stands out as the jewel in the Potter crown. |
| CHUDDevin FaraciA remarkable achievement... moving, funny, honest and true and sad and sweet. A movie about characters who we have come to know and love, and a movie that understands that it's these characters, and not the magic they perform, that is the real hook. |
