An Honest Film Review Of Harry Potter And The Half-Blood Prince

September 25th, 2009

Have you been to see the new Harry Potter film? I went to the see the film last night with my fiancée and two children. My two children were very eager to watch the film and were rather excited as we travelled to the cinema. In this article I will be writing our own personal review of the film.

Now to start with I would have to say that I am glad I went to watch the film; it is something to discuss with your friends and work colleagues at least. I doubt however if I will be purchasing the DVD. Why not? Well I have to say we all felt very disappointed with it; it was far too long for the amount of real action that was included within the film; it was as if they were just trying to do some form of “filler”. We were sat waiting for something worthwhile to happen; which it did from time to time but for me this particular film was just a way of making a whole heap of cash.

There was a young boy a few seats away from me who fell asleep with around thirty minutes remaining – if that boy is reading this article I can tell you that you did not miss much.

I am not a film reviewer, I do many things in life but this is not one of them. I am in fact a stammering therapy coach, I also work on other projects to do with web promotion and cost reduction.

Now you may read in various newspaper reviews that this film is “outstanding” or “the best ever”; these are the types of adjectives that these journalists like to use. I have a question for these people; how old are you? So you are an adult then? This is mainly a children’s film and I have to say that the type of comments that I received from my children were as follows:

“I thought the film was never going to end”

“This was my least favourite of all of the Harry Potter films”

“There was not enough action in the film”

“It was too long”

On a more positive note the film was quite funny in parts and also quite sad at other times. The special effects and the 3D at the start were also most impressive.
