The focus of the book was more on Harry and his obsessive quest to find out who the Half-Blood Prince really is and that was somewhat overlooked in the film. But I think as a fan of the books, I want so much to get to the final two movies that this one might be overlooked.

Don’t get me wrong, I loved both the book and movie and there are certainly some important elements that will play a part in the final two movies.
Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince felt more like a tease to me.
Now don’t forget the love! A few of the main characters share a few snogs and a major character says goodbye. It’s through a series of flashbacks that we learn how Voldemort was recruited at Hogwarts, how he was different and even at a young age, showed signs of being a great (and evil) wizard. Though Ralph Fiennes, the actor who plays the adult Voldemort, doesn’t appear in the movie his real-life nephew Hero Fiennes plays the younger version. Moreover, what the focus of the movie is really about is that we get to learn a bit more about Voldemort’s past. Harry discovers his textbook has some rather cryptic messages in it, although they seem to help him with potions. Both Harry and Ron are in a potions class taught by new instructor Professor Slughorn (Jim Broadbent), who’s been brought to Hogwarts for a little more than his talents as a teacher. Harry (Daniel Radcliffe) and loyal cohorts Ron (Rupert Grint) and Hermione (Emma Watson) are all headed back to Hogwarts where they’ll be safe from the Death Eaters. But I digress…Voldemort’s Death Eaters are gaining power and have even attacked the city of London, bringing down the Millennium Bridge. It’s all about love! The students at Hogwarts are at the age when the sexes notice one another and no where is this better illustrated than in this film.

Though in a more PC move, they said it was for the fans’ benefit so there would be less of a wait until the final chapter arrived and so they could fine tune the movie with effects and so forth. 2008, but Warner bumped the film to July 2009 because, well, they’d already had a great Summer with The Dark Knight and why put all your eggs in one basket. Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince was actually supposed to come out in Nov. How little I knew that within the confines of those pages we’d lose a major character and it was leading up to the final chapter in the Harry Potter saga. At the time, I’d never read any of the books so it sat on my bookshelf. Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince is actually the first book of the series that I received and I think Warner sent it when the DVD of “Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire” was released.
Having read the entire Harry Potter book series twice now, I can say that I fully understand the novels and subsequent films and I also fully understand why they’re the phenomenon that they are.

The only exception being 2003, 20 (ironically enough the year this movie was supposed to come out, more on that later) but the rest have been chock full of witches and wizards. Nearly every year in the 00’s has seen a Harry Potter movie.
