Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince

Another year, another instalment.

This time though something's different. To me at least it seemed that the visual impact of the sixth Harry Potter film has stepped up considerably. From the very start long seamless sweeping shots took my breath away as did the Western Highland scenery.

After ninety minutes I was fidgeting. As with the books it's not that I wasn't enjoying myself, but I wanted to get to the end. Unlike the books though there are now two further episodes to go. I'm hoping the film makers keep each to a sensible length.
