I didn't originally want to see it, but ended up doing so anyway.

I think it just might be the best one yet. The three films before felt so stressed, everything seemed to happen so quickly, but with HBP I could really sit back and relax.

Maybe it's because I didn't particularly care for the book that I liked the movie. The book was so polluted with Harrys' obsession for Ginny, and her new and irritating personality, but fortunately that didn't make it to the film. I quite prefer movie-Ginny to book-Ginny, she's much more laid back and not so poser-ish. I sometimes think she should have played Hermione.

I'm quite surprised they didn't kiss, but really happy that they wanted to focus a bit on their bonding, which is something JK should have done as well.

Every time I see a new HP film I wonder if Emma Watson has progressed at all as an actor. She's always so emotional, and I'm not just talking about her weepy scenes. Her acting is just so lacking in subtlety.

I don't like Grint as Ron either, he's far too dopey. The rest of them can go on living. Especially Luna.

But the star for this film was Slughorn. He was very entertaining.
