Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince may not be what most people expected. But hey, lets just forget about it and understand that not everything in the book will be in the film. With that aside, it is an improvement from the previous movies.

The acting definitely has improved a fair bit and this is likely the trickle down effect the more experienced actors such as Alan Rickman have had on younger actors like Tom Felton. Radcliffe does a fine job as the chosen one. Michael Gambon finally delivers a worthy performance of Dumbeldore which is the Dumbeldore we grew to love in the books. Calm, happy, patient, fearless.

David Yates returned as director of this film and does a commendable job.

The kudos goes to the special effects people for their amazing ability to make every CGI seem so realistic.

Overall a fine film in a series that has become a phenomenon.

Let's face it. Ocean's Eleven is the best film in the trilogy followed by this film.

Ocean's thirteen was bigger and better than Oceans Twelve simply because it is set in Las Vegas and there is only one motif. Revenge.

I think that the film is quite entertaining and funny at times but the main problem is that Willie Banks, Danny and Rusty have too much screen time while the others are merely minor characters.

The stages are amazing and the costumes are unbeatable but what makes this film great is the passion the producers and director had making this movie. It was focused on getting revenge and making it entertaining and the gamble paid off because it kept me interested until the credits started rolling.

7/10

I'm not going to spend hours upon hours driveling about how bad this film is but something has struck me. Paris Hilton and actress is a bad mix because the bottom line is she's about as far away from being an A-list actor as I am from winning the lotto. Of course her style of acting is suitable for home made movies but not the silver screen. The fact that I didn't really care what happened to these characters and what they did.

Now that the American Writers guild is on strike it seems as if the only movies coming out are ones with plot lines that are either ameteurly written or home made movies made into a Hollywood movies for the sake of releasing movies.
