Harry Potter's Half-Blood Is Full On

MSN's Martha Brockenbrough on the newest Harry Potter picture, "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince" -- a movie that's getting rave reviews. Martha loves it, and thinks everyone else will too:

 

"Poor Harry Potter. His hormones have taken over his body, Lord Voldemort is trying to kill him, and his favorite teacher has a creepy, dead black hand.

 

"On the bright side, though, the boy wizard (aka the Chosen One) apparently has the approval of the Pope. The Vatican newspaper just gave a big thumbs-up (or was it four pope hats?) to "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince," the sixth movie in the saga.  It was a wise move on the part of his holiness.

 

"After this movie hits the screens, everybody is going to be a Harry Potter fan; the movie's that good. It's two and a half hours long, but it rips through all the high points in the novel, blending fizzy adolescent romance with end-of-the-world drama into a satisfying wizard's brew."
