Half-Blood Prince scores good reviews

This is good news. Looking forward to seeing it. [Link]

A batch of Harry Potter reviews have been released. And while everyone's unanimous that the new film isn't for those unfamiliar with the Hogwarts curriculum, it's still the best movie to come out of J.K. Rowling's books. Spoilers ahead.

It sounds like the next Harry Potter film will be a journey both into the dark underbelly of the mystical realm, with breaks for the students to make out between the stacks. Reviewers didn't even seem too miffed the film cut out the novel's big climactic scene. And what of the films running time (the longest of the Potter films thus far)? Not long enough, says some critics — bladders be damned, you'll supposedly will be looking for bottle to fill on the floor, so not to miss a moment of the action.
