![]() Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince (Blu-ray/DVD Combo + Digital Copy & BD-Live) [Blu-ray] $35.99 I love the Harry Potter series and Half-Blood Prince is one of the best books in the series. To be honest i enjoyed the movie except for the beginning and the ending. I didn't care for the fact that Dumbledore had met Harry at the train station. I was really excited to read in the book that Dumbledore had gone to the Dursley's and took Harry out of there. I was also disappointed when they didn't have Dumbledore's funeral. They pretty much just let him lay dead on the pavement. I thought the cave was exciting and i was really happy that it turned out the way it did in my head when i read the book. I thought it was a bit dark and different for the Harry Potter series. I liked that the writters incorporated the fact that Tonks and Lupin were in a relationship. I thought that it could have had a better ending. All in all i like H-BP and anyone who is a big fan of the books would probably like me and be alittle dissapointed! ![]() Star Trek (Single-Disc Edition) $29.99 I only wish the wide angle view was not so "narrow" on the screen with no other options that I could find anyway. Loved the commentary too. Although not a real avid Trek fan, this one of my fav Trek movies. ![]() Up (Single Disc Widescreen) $29.99 Rented the movie today and thought it was only OK. Certainly didn't live up to the Pixar reputation like the Incredibles and Toy Story. It was rather violent for an animated film and there was no solid plot to follow. Funny parts throughout the movie, but I can't see a child getting into it or being able to follow it. ![]() Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs $29.98 I loved the first Ice Age. The second was so-so. This third one got me laughing the way the first one did. Some of the jokes were recycled but there was some good new material, too. If you pay attention, you'll notice some weird plot issues, esp. as relating to the previous movies (like, in the second one, wasn't everything melting? Why is everything frozen again in the 3rd one?) but it I'm pretty forgiving to that sort of thing, so it didn't bother me. If you liked the first Ice Age, I recommend the 3rd--even if you didn't like the 2nd. |
