What´s the plot?
‘Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince’, the eagerly awaited new Harry Potter film, has arrived.

Experience the film's explosive opening, exclusively in IMAX 3D. The opening 12 minutes have been transformed into IMAX 3D for a truly magical beginning.

As Voldemort tightens his grip on the Muggle and wizarding worlds, Hogwarts is no longer the safe place it once was. In ‘Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince’, the dangers are no longer outside, they are within the castle itself – and Dumbledore is determined on preparing Harry Potter for the final battle that is fast approaching.

Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince sees Harry and Dumbledore working together to unlock Voldemort's defences. And to help them, Dumbledore calls upon the services of his old friend and colleague, the well-connected Professor Horace Slughorn – a new character for the new Harry Potter film, played by Jim Broadbent.

The star struck Professor, a retired teacher of magic, is tempted back out of retirement by Harry Potter’s new celebrity status – and is sure to have a few new tricks up his sleeve.

Meanwhile, the rest of the Hogwarts students are under the spell of a very different adversary - teenage hormones. In ‘Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince’, the students are growing up fast, and finding themselves increasingly attracted to each other.

Harry is increasingly drawn to Ginny, and so is Dean Thomas. Meanwhile, Lavender Brown has her sights set firmly on Ron – but she hasn’t counted on Romilda Vane’s chocolates. And then there’s Hermione, who is simmering with jealousy but determined not to show her feelings to the rest of Hogwarts.

However, as passions run high through Hogwarts, one student remains aloof, and is determined to make his mark - albeit a dark one. Love is in the air, but tragedy lies ahead, and Hogwarts may never be the same again.

Not recommended!! If you are to see this film then watch it normally as 3d is only for 12 minutes. This was amazing but not worth the extra money. Also there is not much of a storyline to this film so i rate it as the worst potter film yet. Hope the next one is improved

Altrough I have not read any of the books I went to watch this film only because it was in 3D as Odeon was claiming. When I went to the cinema I was suprised to see only 12 min of the movie in 3D, wchich was amazing, but the rest of the movie was simply rubbish. One star for the humour.

Much better than expected

The Film was great, yes it did not stick too closely to the book, but what works in a book does not always translate into a great film. This film was so much better than the reviews make you believe, because it found its own way. I loved it. I also saw it in 3D, well the first 12 minutes is all you get, but if you get the chance to see it in 3D, it is well worth while doing so, although I really wish the 3D part was much longer.
