Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince - movie review



The good: As always, set design and the Potter world always display cool knick-knacks. Lots of character interaction and some fun humor.

The bad: Not very much happens, in terms of action. I still don't get why the wizards have certain great powers yet can't put out a fire, etc.
p.s. NEEDS MORE ALAN RICKMAN!

In short: If you like the previous movies and like the characters, this one is worth seeing. If you want a fun movie, maybe not so much.

Saturday at the Landmark - 11:30pm showing
(pretty full for such a late showing)
