HARRY POTTER AND THE HALF-BLOOD PRINCE


Genre: Adventure Fantasy Mystery Thriller
Direction: David Yates
Leads: Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson, Rupert Grint

And the direction has improved yet again! The acting is amazing and I cannot rate it any less than what the series has been reaching till now. The story has taken its final leap in revealing the darkest secrets about Voldemort and now leaves Harry to find his way to defeat him. The ending has the biggest twist of the series till now and it will blow your mind.

The story however was short. The movie felt like a huge stretch from some time into the start all the way till some time before the climax. The scenes were repetitive leading nowhere until a long time, especially about what Draco's upto throughout the movie. Also, the story seemed to have rotated around Harry, rather than the trio this time. Ron's part was just childish throughout and Hermione's role seemed to have been undermined. So, I won't rate it more than the previous thought the plot used in this one might have deserved more.
