Harry Potter and the Half blood Prince



As a self-confessed fan of Harry Potter, I have managed to restrain myself this year and avoided the hysteria surrounding the release of the latest film. That being the case probably because I all too eagerly got far too hysterical about following Andy Murray during the recent Wimbledon grand slam; but as one British home-grown “near” champion consumed my thoughts, now another, if not of a slightly different calibre, rapidly approaches. The main distinction and one I need to remind myself of, is one hero is of course complete fiction, and the other, real flesh and blood. But controversy may ensue when contemplating whether it was actually complete fiction that Murray could of ever of won Wimbledon in the first place..!

This will be the sixth film in the popular Harry Potter film series and directed by David Yates, the director of the fifth film, Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix. Producers: David Heyman and David Barron are accompanied by the return of Steve Kloves, screenwriter of the first four films (but not the fifth). Thank you, Wikipedia.

I really would like to go see this HP at the IMAX 3D in Manchester if anyone fancies it? Due to the Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen 4-week commitment, the film will instead be released in IMAX 3D on 29 July 2009 – one for diaries? So far, the film has received very positive reviews from critics and I am interested to know what you think.
