harry potter and the half blood prince, July 17, 2009
By jkinfo

"It saddens me that this movie and the previous two are so chopped up as to appear almost like summarys instead of movies. In the half blood prince there were things in the movie that were not in the book, such as snape telling harry he was the half blood prince, that was'nt how harry found out in the book. another was harry giving up the potions book and ginny hiding it. Harry never gave the book up and ginny never hid it. The entire fight scene between the death eaters and hogwarts was cut out, this was a major part of the book. Justice cannot be done to these books in a two plus hour time limit. The first three movies were wonderful. These movies could have been wonderful classics and I believe harry potter fans will always love the first three but the last three will never achieve this and its a real discredit to the author because she wrote seven wonderful books. As far as the fans, the many people I spoke to were disappointed for the same reasons I just gave concerning the chopping up of the book because someone does'nt want to allot the time to do justice to the books or their author."
