Review of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince (2009) by Martin H — 31 Aug 2013

It had good laughs, thrill and emotional involvement, but unfortunately feels very much like a rushed set-up for the final book/films (in the same way that Star Wars II and III were desperately trying to make the story arc come full circle before their end of filming tape).

I think it is because of the lack of an all action climax. At least the courageous ending redeems the film somewhat.
