I admit, as an uber-geek fan of the books I tend to be hyper-critical as far as the movies are concerned, but this was a monster letdown! I mean, one line from Snape casually stating that he is the Half Blood Prince with no further explanation, come on!!?? It's the title of the movie for Pete's sake!! I was also disappointed that they did not include Dumbledore's funeral in the movie as it was so beautifully done in the book. And don't even get me started on the various artistic liberties (also know as the huge inconsistencies) between the book and the movie. Bottom line, if you're a fan, of course you are going to see the film. But prepare to be less than impressed. This is certainly the worst of the otherwise very well done saga.
