Acutally 4.5 Stars out of 5! Almost Perfect!

-Amazing art direction, great performances (especially Tom Felton), fan-fodder, beautiful cinematography, and brilliant direction by David Yates! Bravo!
-Just short of perfection due to a change in tone of the ending. Those who have read the book the film's ending will seem disconcerting at first. After having time to think about it, I loved the execution (not literally), but I would have stayed the course. (No major plot points about the ending changed, it was just quieter).
-Finally, the "Half Blood Prince" novel clocked in at 652 pages. Certain aspects of this story were ommitted. Yates and company told the story that needed to be told. Enjoy it!

Enjoyable but a little lewd

Whereas I highly enjoyed this movie, I will say that it was nowhere near the quality, intelligence, nor spectacle of the first film.
Little things that were found charming in the original (quirky robot dialogue or awkward situations) have had the volume turned up.
Parents should be cautioned that just about everything coming out of the supporting robots' mouths will be lewd and/or uncalled for. Also a specific instance involving robot private parts comes straight to mind as well.
If you can get past these and a few jumps in narrative continuity, then you are left with a wonderful action spectacle which I will say again was highly enjoyable.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

Scary, Funny, and Schizophrenic

Chistropher Nolan has set a new benchmark for action narratives derived from Comic Books/ Graphic Novels. The characters, dialogues, and sequences he provided set one hell of a stage for his acting regime to shine. Whilst everyone turned in a stellar performance, I must say the spotlight shone brightest on Heath Ledger, Aaron Eckhart, and Maggie Gyllenhaal. Bravo!
Yes, I recommend this movie.
