HARRY POTTER AND THE HALF-BLOOD PRINCE (Theatrical Release USA 2009)

Ben Meyers’ rating: 4.5|5.0 Starsìììì

Harry Potter and the Half-blood Prince This is one of the best Harry Potter movies produced yet. Looks like JK Rowling may win the title for writing the longest running movie series since George Lucas’ Star Wars. This is really a great concept for a movie and with its outstanding casting, it will make a good entertainment choice for years. Great work for Director David Yates for making a movie worth watching over and over again. Let’s see how well he performs on the final two movies, Deathly Hallows Part 1 and 2.
