Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince (a review... sorta)
16 years ago
踊れ愚か者ども!
So as way to justify everything about I will say about this movie, I will say this: It was better than Transformers 2: Revenge of the Fallen. A review of that goes as follows: An explosive clusterfuck encrusted with FAIL.
So here goes:
It wasn't a good movie, but it wasn't a bad one either. People are raving that this "the best Harry Potter movie evar!" This lacked, again, what made a Harry Potter movie great, more so now that we are getting into the concentration of emotional piss. It's pacing. This was again not well paced. The First Act was smooth, it was okay. The Second Act was the longest, most excruciating, most exacerbating second act out of a Harry Potter movie I've seen so far.
I facepalmed about... 14 times in Act 2. They were so focused on the forced romance that it became irritating. And to be honest very boring and very unfunny. "Oh ron stops every ball with his head hawheehawheehaw." Ugh...
Not to mention that Book 6 was actually the most interesting Book out of the series. There was serious character development, it was face paced, and it wasn't boring! What was weird was the fact at how inconsistent the movie was. Dumbledore's death scene was basically 5 minutes long of him falling off the edge, Harry having his "NOOOOOOOOOOOO~!" moment and Narcissa doing her evil laugh. While the scene leading up to it was:
Dumbledore: Snape please...
Snape: okay *avada kadavra*
*Dumbledore gets shot off the balcony*
At that points very jading. There was almost no transition between that scene and this scene. That's not a twist... that's random.
Overall a lot of the scenes were nice, again Act 2. longest... Act... ever... I recommend it... sorta. Again it was better than Transformers.
