The Planets full movie

It seems that week after week another big movie comes out.  Wolverine, Star Trek, UP, The Hangover, Transformers, and Bruno. However, now the single biggest film of the Summer, maybe the year opens up worldwide.  Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince premieres at 12:01 on Tuesday night (Wednesday morning), and plenty of serious fans will be waiting on lines for hours to make sure they get a decent seat.  This is the sixth installment of the Harry Potter franchise, and will no question be the best of the films to date.

The story is definitely fit for film.  David Yates, the director of the 5th movie, also directed this one. He did a great job adapting the 5th book (Order of the Phoenix) to film.  I really thought that the 5th book was a bit weak compared to the others, yet somehow Yates succeeded in creating an extremely entertaining film.  He was able to trim the fat well, getting rid of really the unnecessary parts of the book that weren’t fit to tell the main story. Sure, the film goer misses out on some parts of the book, but they get the overall picture. I’m not going to sit here and compare the books versus the movies, as both are good, but if you like the movies, definitely go check out the books.  Also, it’s a bit difficult to convert 700 pages of book to something around 2.5 hours of movie.  Of all the books, the story in this installment is definitely the most easily adaptable to film.  Be prepared for some major developments as we get closer to Harry and Voldemort’s past and connection.
