Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince (2009)
By now you should have a pretty good idea of the people involved as we move on to part six of the popular boy wizard franchise. Harry and chums are now getting to that age where they are all angsty over who is dating who while the big bad and his minions are still increasing in power.
Much like the previous film this is a darker effort than the earlier entries into the series both in terms of tone and lighting. The plot is not bad but I would really liked to have seen more focus on Draco and Snape as they have by far the most interesting character developments of the series so far in this film. Given that the characters are now supposed to be 16-17 the way some the relationships is dealt with does seem a little immature with the focus on “snogging”, one does wonder what the teen pregnancy rate is like at Hogwarts.
3/5 another decent effort in the franchise but does miss the potential to move into more adult themes.
