Harry Potter 6: Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince

Waiting two years since the last movie from the mega-popular franchise can finally exhale -- Harry, Ron, Hermione and their classmates are back for year 6 of Hogwarts training in 'Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince' (opens July 15), which is shaping up to be the most romantic and mature installment yet.

Is Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince the best Harry Potter film yet? Oh yes. Is it one of the best films of the year? Oh yes again.

And I don't just say that through the fog of my well-known Potter fanboy. Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince is a remarkable achievement, a film that is moving, that is funny, that is honest and true and sad and sweet.

It's a movie about characters who we have come to know and love, and it's a movie that understands that it's these characters, and not the magic they perform, that is the real hook of the series. And it's a film that is just crowded with beautiful vistas and marvelous effects and that has some of the best performances yet for this series.

Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince - Intro

Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, released on 16 July 2005, is the sixth of seven novels from British author J. K. Rowling's popular Harry Potter series. Set during Harry Potter's sixth year at Hogwarts, the novel explores Lord Voldemort's past, and Harry's preparations for the final battle amidst emerging romantic relationships and the emotional confusions and conflict resolutions characteristic of mid-adolescence.

The book sold three million copies in the first 16 hours after its release, a record at the time which was eventually broken by its sequel, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows.http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/entertainment/6912529.stm

Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince [Theatrical Release]

This is one of my favorite Harry Potter books. I have seen the previews and I am anticipating a great movie in relation to the book. So many of the characters that have been in the back ground are finally going to get their chance to star even if they are being the villain. I know I will be at the theater on July 15th to be one of the first ones to see this movie.

Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince (Book 6)

by: J.K. Rowling

The long-awaited, eagerly anticipated, arguably over-hyped Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince has arrived, and the question on the minds of kids, adults, fans, and skeptics alike is, "Is it worth the hype?" The answer, luckily, is simple: yep. A magnificent spectacle more than worth the price of admission, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince will blow you away. However, given that so much has gone into protecting the secrets of the book (including armored trucks and injunctions), don't expect any spoilers in this review. It's much more fun not knowing what's coming--and in the case of Rowling's delicious sixth book, you don't want to know. Just sit tight, despite the earth-shattering revelations that will have your head in your hands as you hope the words will rearrange themselves into a different story. But take one warning to heart: do not open Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince until you have first found a secluded spot, safe from curious eyes, where you can tuck in for a good long read. Because once you start, you won't stop until you reach the very last page.

5 Things to Know About 'Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince'

1. Love Triangle
Despite threats of terrorism (via the Death Eaters) and suspected turncoats roaming the halls of Hogwarts, there's always time for a little romance, especially with a box of love potion-laced chocolates thrown into the mix with the raging teenage hormones. Yates says the story "deals with the politics of romance." Ron must balance the affections of Lavender Brown ("Lavender's completely crazy," says Grint) with his long-gestating liaison with Hermione (Emma Watson). "I think Hermione's beginning to acknowledge the fact that she has feelings for him, which she's never done," says Watson. "She's always been in denial." Adds Grint, "All the stuff with Lavender makes her go a bit crazy." Poor guy, this Ron, surrounded by all these crazies.

2. Introducing Your New Potions Instructor
With each 'Potter' movie comes at least one new teacher, played by some of the UK's most venerated actors. New to the party in 'Prince' is Jim Broadbent, who plays Potions teacher Horace Slughorn. Says Radcliffe when asked if the relationship between Harry and Slughorn will be as strained on screen as in the books: "I think Harry ultimately likes Slughorn. I think he thinks he's a very good person and his heart is in the right place, but he's just very opportunistic and totally self-obsessed." Fun fact: Broadbent played Tom Felton's father in the young actor's first film, 'The Borrowers.'

3. Magical vs. Fantastical
One of the biggest goals (and challenges) on the set of 'Potter' movies has been to maintain a consistent look and feel. "We've established a world and it's a parallel world to our own," says David Heyman, the 'Potter' producer who obtained the books' film rights. "We're quite strict about making sure we don't stray, because sometimes directors or contributors turn up for the first time, and it's very easy for them to stray off into the realm of the fantastical as opposed to the magical. What we try and establish is a real world that has a magical element, which is obviously not real. But who knows? Maybe there are wizards out there. Maybe we are muggles, after all."

4. 1st Bruno!
Also new to 'Prince' is director of photography Bruno Delbonnel, who shot the gorgeous French flicks 'Amelie' and 'A Very Long Engagement.' What does that mean to the average fan? "It'll be warmer than the last film," director David Yates says of the movie's look. "'Order of the Phoenix' was dealing with teenage angst and it was dealing with that period in life where you start to rebel a wee bit and you're struggling against authority and all of that, while this film is much warmer and much more romantic."

5. Scrapping Scrimgeour
Of course, not every scene, detail or even character can make the cut when adapting a 652-page book into a two-hour movie. A casualty of the page-to-screen condensation in part 6 is Minister of Magic Rufus Scrimgeour, who famously visits the Muggle Prime Minister in the book. "We struggled to keep him in," says Yates. "It's a great scene in the book ... We loved that, and it was in and it was out and it was in and it was out again." It was just announced that Bill Nighy has signed on to 'Deathly Hallows,' and though the actor is tight-lipped on who he'll play, the presumption is he will indeed be Scrimgeour.

Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone (Book 1)

by: J.K. Rowling

A mysterious letter, delivered by the friendly giant Hagrid, wrenches Harry from his dreary, Muggle-ridden existence: "We are pleased to inform you that you have been accepted at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry." Of course, Uncle Vernon yells most unpleasantly, "I AM NOT PAYING FOR SOME CRACKPOT OLD FOOL TO TEACH HIM MAGIC TRICKS!" Soon enough, however, Harry finds himself at Hogwarts with his owl Hedwig... and that's where the real adventure--humorous, haunting, and suspenseful--begins. Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone, first published in England as Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone, continues to win major awards in England. So far it has won the National Book Award, the Smarties Prize, the Children's Book Award, and is short-listed for the Carnegie Medal, the U.K. version of the Newbery Medal. This magical, gripping, brilliant book--a future classic to be sure--will leave kids clamoring for Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets and Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban. (Ages 8 to 13) --Karin Snelson

Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets (Book 2)

by: J. K. Rowling

It's hard to fall in love with an earnest, appealing young hero like Harry Potter and then to watch helplessly as he steps into terrible danger! And in J.K. Rowling's Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, the much anticipated sequel to the award-winning Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone, he is in terrible danger indeed. As if it's not bad enough that after a long summer with the horrid Dursleys he is thwarted in his attempts to hop the train to the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry to begin his second year. But when his only transportation option is a magical flying car, it is just his luck to crash into a valuable (but clearly vexed) Whomping Willow. Still, all this seems like a day in the park compared to what happens that fall within the haunted halls of Hogwarts.

Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban (Book 3)

by: J. K. Rowling

For most children, summer vacation is something to look forward to. But not for our 13-year-old hero, who's forced to spend his summers with an aunt, uncle, and cousin who detest him. The third book in J.K. Rowling's Harry Potter series catapults into action when the young wizard "accidentally" causes the Dursleys' dreadful visitor Aunt Marge to inflate like a monstrous balloon and drift up to the ceiling. Fearing punishment from Aunt Petunia and Uncle Vernon (and from officials at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry who strictly forbid students to cast spells in the nonmagic world of Muggles), Harry lunges out into the darkness with his heavy trunk and his owl Hedwig.

Amazon Price: (as of 11/30/2009)

Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire (Book 4)

by: J.K. Rowling

In Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, J.K. Rowling offers up equal parts danger and delight--and any number of dragons, house-elves, and death-defying challenges. Now 14, her orphan hero has only two more weeks with his Muggle relatives before returning to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Yet one night a vision harrowing enough to make his lightning-bolt-shaped scar burn has Harry on edge and contacting his godfather-in-hiding, Sirius Black. Happily, the prospect of attending the season's premier sporting event, the Quidditch World Cup, is enough to make Harry momentarily forget that Lord Voldemort and his sinister familiars--the Death Eaters--are out for murder.

Amazon Price: $19.79 (as of 11/30/2009)

Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix (Book 5)

by: J. K. Rowling, Mary GrandPré

As his fifth year at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry approaches, 15-year-old Harry Potter is in full-blown adolescence, complete with regular outbursts of rage, a nearly debilitating crush, and the blooming of a powerful sense of rebellion. It's been yet another infuriating and boring summer with the despicable Dursleys, this time with minimal contact from our hero's non-Muggle friends from school. Harry is feeling especially edgy at the lack of news from the magic world, wondering when the freshly revived evil Lord Voldemort will strike. Returning to Hogwarts will be a relief... or will it?

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows (Book 7)

by: J.K. Rowling

Readers beware. The brilliant, breathtaking conclusion to J.K. Rowling's spellbinding series is not for the faint of heart--such revelations, battles, and betrayals await in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows that no fan will make it to the end unscathed. Luckily, Rowling has prepped loyal readers for the end of her series by doling out increasingly dark and dangerous tales of magic and mystery, shot through with lessons about honor and contempt, love and loss, and right and wrong. Fear not, you will find no spoilers in our review--to tell the plot would ruin the journey, and Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows is an odyssey the likes of which Rowling's fans have not yet seen, and are not likely to forget. But we would be remiss if we did not offer one small suggestion before you embark on your final adventure with Harry--bring plenty of tissues.
