“Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince”, the sixth installment of the series, broke a midnight-screening record of $20 million last Wednesday. The movie was dark and thrilling, yet more prevalent was the coupling romances among teenagers. Between Ron and Lavender’s “snogging” scenes and Hermione’s jealousies, the movie focused less on Harry’s problems and more on hormonal angst. Harry seemed to run solo with most of his problems, but with Dumbledore’s help, Harry continued on his mission against Voldemort — I mean, HE-WHO-MUST-NOT-BE-NAMED. The sixth part of the series proved the complexities and depth of the seven series saga, and may have been too confusing for Harry Potter virgins, but crazed fans could appreciate the smaller humors dispersed throughout. The transition from book to screen demonstrated director David Yates’ talented ability to turn a 652-page book into a 2 1/2 hour movie. The surprising ending left everyone wanting more and a chance to look forward to the last segment of the Harry Potter story.
