Roxfort körül egyre szaporodnak az árnyak. Pedig a hatodik osztályba lépő Harry Potter és barátai számára a Boszorkány- és Varázslóképző Szakiskola mindennapjai is bőven elég izgalmat jelentenek nekik: Harry különleges titkokat hordozó bájital tankönyve, Ron barátnője és Hermione szerelme is épp elég titokzatos és ijesztő. De Harrynek egyre több oka van a félelemre. A halálfalók már mindenütt ott vannak, a dementortámadások szaporodnak, és az iskola fölött megjelenik a Sötét Jegy. Dumbledore abban reménykedik, hogy védence megerősödhet, ha jobban megismeri a múltját. De van veszély, amelyre ő sem készülhet fel. (InterCom)

Just as I witnessed the exact translation of the tense political and magical atmosphere in Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, in Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince there is a mood full of anticipation, competition, pranks, and infatuations. The popularity of this installment simply depends on the popularity of the book source material, and those who expected to continue the previous storylines without being familiar with it are bound to be disappointed. At Hogwarts there is an atmosphere of a year-long Valentine's Day, where it's easier to forget everything that burdens the outside world. And so, only Dumbledore regularly reminds everyone of why Harry is indispensable and irreplaceable, Draco noticeably keeps his distance from others, and the Christmas holidays show once again that evil never sleeps. Naturally, the screenplay doesn't forget that the dark fantasy mythology is continuing to progress and leaves our heroes exactly where they were destined to be from the beginning of the saga. At the beginning of the final rebellion, on the brink of independence. And the gem of it all is that both darkness and enchanting romance work so naturally alongside each other that it takes your breath away. David Yates is a king.

It's unfortunate that the conversational aspect from the life of teenagers returns. I'm used to the undersized story, but I’m simply not interested in the emotional chatter of the little wizards. It’s a good thing that Yates gets the film going decently again in the second half. After the promising fifth film, it was confirmed to me again that the film version of Harry Potter is a precisely treated product, but there is no great magic – it disappeared with the departure of Oldman and the influx of hormones. Fans will be pleased, the infidels will not be offended, and the film will amuse and do no harm. Stupefy... not a chance. [65%]

Considering Yates managed to get something out of the most superfluous part of the book that ends up not working because of that superfluousness (aka zero action), then I have nothing left to do than look forward to the adaptation of book seven which might at last aspire to toppling Cuarón’s offering from its position of best Harry Potter movie adaptation.

It was fun, it makes it all the more messy. People who haven't read the book must be a bit confused (well, my immediate circle was). It's a shame the script buried it like that. If it had been more in the detective vein (remembering what Draco actually does) and flashed some of that romantic sparks here and there, it probably would have been better. I don't think Harry Potter is a one-act romantic comedy... Music – great as always; effects as well. It's just that a 153-minute movie shouldn't look like this, or let it look like this, but the people around you in the theater aren't supposed to be saying: "Is it finally over? Damn, not yet?! What time is it? Check your watch!" I kind of want to say RIP. Weakest installment of the series. Anyway, I'm curious to see what they're gonna serve up next.

I enjoyed most of the sixth Potter (despite the guy in front of me who was farting throughout, I’m not kidding!), or rather that applies until the movie reached the end and I was literally disgusted by what the screenwriter was doing (from the point where Harry and D return to the Hogwarts). I haven’t see a more bungled finale in this series yet. Certainly Yates gets the maximum out of this, but that means that, differently to in the book, the characters behave illogically and everything seems a little slow. The finale in the book was as tense as a guitar string. Surprising, logical and maybe the best that Rowling wrote. Where is the big battle, where is the inevitability? Wasted words. It’s completely different right from the start. The story takes off a amazing speed and if it weren’t for the rather exaggerated love interest (they only included that to lighten the mood a little) I would be happy with it. I really liked Jim Broadbent’s Slughorn - he was just right for the part and more than satisfied my expectations. Otherwise, it’s a classic, but maybe Tom Felton and Alan Rickman were more striking than last time. In the end I’m giving it 4 stars, even though it was rather lame this time. P.S.: At home we have exactly the same water glasses as the ones that Harry, Hermi and Ron drink the butterbeer from at the Three Broomsticks.

Visually the most elaborate piece of nothing yet. An empty script in which Emma Watson overacts her sad and jealous grimaces, Potter chases everyone but the right girl, and the third guy in the bunch is totally out of touch with the reality of what's going on. There's an excruciatingly large amount of high school romance and damn little action or drama in the story, and the little there is, it barely lasts a few minutes or is at the end. A woefully lacklustre and uninteresting episode that served only as a prelude to the grand finale.

Some things were extra (the opening digital destruction of London), some things were not enough (ironically, the mystery of the Half-blood Prince), but the film is still excellent and David Yates proves that his previous success was no accident. The story has once again pared the book down to the bare essentials. There are many characters, but the most interesting ones get the most space they deserve (apart from the central trio, they are probably Dumbledore, Snape, Malfoy and the Horace Slughorn), there is no lack of emotion or suspense (for those unfamiliar with the story, there are also a few surprises and even shocks), a nice romantic and friendly storyline and a few rewardingly funny scenes (brewing potions, Ron the Catcher...) to lighten and balance the necessary fatefulness. As a warm-up for the finale, The Half-Blood Prince is perfect.

I read somewhere the other day that the sixth Harry Potter film will be a bridge from the fifth to the final episodes. And that's what it looks like in the overall scheme of things. Since David Yates has been in the director's chair, this saga has taken on a grim veneer of action. I don't think that's missing here. The audio-visual execution, including the cinematography, is really good, especially the Millennium Bridge and the cave scene. The screenplay is based on the book, but other material has been brought to the surface, which at times mars the overall look of the film. The soundtrack fits the scenes perfectly – again, I liked the cave scene best. Casting Jim Broadbent as Slughorn was an excellent move, because that's sort of how I imagined his character. The final scene with Dumbledore and Snape and then with Snape was quite disappointing for me, but it is a "bridge" after all. For me, probably the weakest episode of the whole saga, excelling in the technical area rather than the script and the actors.

For me, this is the most botched film based on the Harry Potter books, mainly because the creators focused entirely on that one single scene at the end and somehow forgot that the story has more to it. Yes, it's much more for adults; parents can watch and enjoy it, but the source material got quite a rough treatment here.

Certainly the most cinematically accomplished and best made Harry Potter film (so far). I really like Yates’ approach to the material, and what he started in Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix is brought to near perfection here. The bridge demolition scene is absolutely stunning, and add 3D to the mix. :) The fact that the films don't work much with the books they’re based on has annoyed me a little (or maybe a little more), but Yates' Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince has great pacing (despite the rather long romantic storyline) and those slightly drawn-out two hours flew by unbelievably in the cinema. I don't understand the users who rate this flashy bit of cinema and acting 2 stars... A film is a film and a book is a book. 4.5 stars
