Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince (Widescreen Edition) Warner Brothers Warner Home Video HARRY POTTER THE HALF-BLOOD PRINCE DVD MOVIE The sixth installment of the Harry Potter series begins right where The Order of the Phoenix left off The wizarding world is rocked by the news that He Who Must Not Be Named has truly returned and the audience finally knows that Harry is the Chosen One --the only wizard who can defeat Lord Voldemort in the end Dark forces loom around every corner and now regularly attempt to penetrate the protected walls of Hogwarts School This is no longer the fun and fascinating world of magic from the first few books its dark dangerous and scary Harry Daniel Radcliffe suspects Draco Malfoy Tom Felton to be a new Death Eater recruit on a special mission for the Dark Lord In the meantime Professor Dumbledore Michael Gambon seems to have finally removed the shroud of secrecy from Harry about the dark path that lies ahead and instead provides private lessons to get him prepared Its in these intriguing scenes that the dark past of Tom Riddle a k a Voldemort is finally revealed The actors cast as the different young versions of Riddle Hero Fiennes-Tiffin and Frank Dillane do an eerily fantastic job of portraying the villain as a child While the previous movies many new characters could be slightly overwhelming only one new key character is introduced this time Professor Horace Slughorn with a spot-on performance by Jim Broadbent Within his mind he holds a key secret in the battle to defeat the Dark Lord and Harry is tasked by Dumbledore to uncover a memory about Voldemorts darkest weapon--the Horcrux Despite the long list of distractions Harry Ron Rupert Grint and Hermione Emma Watson still try to focus on being teenagers and audiences will enjoy the budding awkward romances All of the actors have developed nicely giving their most convincing performances to date More dramatic and significant things go down in this movie than any of its predecessors and the stakes are higher than ever The creators have been tasked with a practically impossible challenge as fans of the beloved J K Rowling book series desperately want the movies to capture the magic of the books as closely as possible Alas the point at which one accepts that these two mediums are very different is the point at which one can truly enjoy these brilliant adaptations Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince is no exception it may be the best film yet For those who have not read the book nail-biting Angels & Demons (Single-Disc Theatrical Edition) Sony Pictures In Ron Howards thrilling follow-up to The Da Vinci Code expert symbologist Robert Langdon Tom Hanks follows ancient clues on a heart-racing hunt through Rome to find the four Cardinals kidnapped by the deadly secret society the Illuminati With the Cardinals lives on the line and the Camerlengo Ewan McGregor desperate for help Langdon embarks on a nonstop action-packed race through sealed crypts dangerous catacombs and the most secretive vault on Earth If the devil is in the details theres a lot of wicked fun in em Angels Demons / em the sequel originally a prequel to em The Da Vinci Code / em Director Ron Howard delivers edge-of-your-pew thrills all over the Vatican the City of Rome and the deepest dankest catacombs Tom Hanks is dependably watchable in his reprised role as Professor Robert Langdon summoned urgently to Rome on a matter of utmost urgency--which happens to coincide with the death of the Pope meaning the Vatican is teeming with cardinals and Rome is teeming with the faithful A religious offshoot group calling themselves the Illuminati which protested the Catholic Churchs prosecution of scientists 400 years ago has resurfaced and is making extreme and gruesome terrorist demands The film zooms around the city as Langdon follows clues embedded in art architecture and the very bone structure of the Vatican The cast is terrific including Ewan McGregor who is memorable as a young prot g of the late pontiff and who seems to challenge the common wisdom of the Conclave just by being 40 years younger than his fellows when he lectures for church reform Stellan Skarsgard is excellent as a gruff commander of the Swiss Guard who may or may not have thrown in with the Illuminati But the real star of the film is Rome and its High Church gorgeousness with lush cinematography by Salvatore Totino who renders the real sky above the Vatican in a cataclysmic event with the detail and majesty of the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel -- em A T Hurley / em r / r /

at which one accepts that these two mediums are very different is the point at which one can truly enjoy these brilliant adaptations Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince is no exception it may be the best film yet For those who have not read the book nail-biting Julie & Julia Sony Pictures Julie Julia is a film that should be relished with gusto--accompanied by the freshest and best ingredients pounds of butter and bottles of the very best wine It lovingly celebrates the life of one of American foods most influential and beloved figureheads Julia Child--played here with zest humor and a sweet subtle respect by Meryl Streep whose performance is spectacular Julie Julia is based on the book by Julie Powell a frustrated New York bureaucrat who wants to be a writer But youre not a writer until someone publishes you she moans So she gives herself a challenge to cook her way through Julia Childs Mastering the Art of French Cooking in one year and to blog about it As Powell played with chirpy determination by Amy Adams begins to find her groove as a cook and her voice as a writer the project takes on a life of its own--and in the end it does provide the struggling young woman with her lifes purpose to her very pleasant surprise But mostly Julie Julia is a valentine to Child to Childs amazing love affair with her dashing husband Paul Stanley Tucci as divine as any souffl in the film and to her outlook on embracing life and ordering seconds Streep throws herself into the Child role with real affection for her character and while certain of Childs idiosyncrasies--including her warbly voice and unflappable haphazardness in the kitchen--are retained its Childs character and vision which form Streeps portrayal and which make the film so involving and rewarding Nora Ephron directs with deftness and a light touch though she seems at times to be encouraging some of Meg Ryans onscreen tics in Adams the self-conscious head tilt for one But mostly she simply allows Streep to channel Child and her love of food her husband and 1950s Paris And that is a recipe for something truly sublime --A T Hurley The Proposal (Single Disc Widescreen) BUENA

revenge fantasy Inglourious Basterds As war rages in Europe a Nazi-scalping squad of American soldiers known to their enemy as The Basterds is on a daring mission to take down the leaders of the Third Reich Bursting with action hair-trigger suspense and a machine-gun spray of killer dialogue Peter Travers Rolling Stone Inglourious Basterds is another Tarantino masterpiece Jake Hamilton CBS-TV Although Quentin Tarantino has cherished Enzo G Castellaris 1978 macaroni war flick The Inglorious Bastards for most of his film-geek life his own Inglourious Basterds is no remake Instead as hinted by the Tarantino-esque misspelling this is a lunatic fantasia of WWII a brazen re-imagining of both history and the behind-enemy-lines war film subgenre Theres a Dirty Not-Quite-Dozen of mostly Jewish commandos led by a Tennessee good ol boy named Aldo Raine Brad Pitt who reckons each warrior owes him one hundred Nazi scalps--and he means that literally Even as Raines band strikes terror into the Nazi occupiers of France a diabolically smart and self-assured German officer named Landa Christoph Waltz is busy validating his own legend as The Jew Hunter Along the way he wipes out the rural family of a grave young girl Melanie Laurent who will reappear years later in Paris dreaming of vengeance on an epic scale Now this isnt one more big-screen comic book As the masterly opening sequence reaffirms Tarantino is a true filmmaker with a deep respect for the integrity of screen space and the tension that can accumulate in contemplating two men seated at a table having a polite conversation IB reunites QT with cinematographer Robert Richardson who shot Kill Bill and the colors and textures they serve up can be riveting from the eerie red-hot glow of a tabletop in Adolf Hitlers den to the creamy swirl of a Parisian pastry in which Landa parks his cigarette The action has been divided Pulp Fiction -like into five chapters each featuring at least one spellbinding set-piece Its testimony to the integrity we mentioned that Tarantino can lock in the ferocious suspense of a scene for minutes on end then explode the situation almost faster than the eye and ear can register and then take the rest of the sequence to a new wholly unanticipated level within seconds Again be warned This is not your Greatest Generation Saving Private Ryan WWII The sadism of Raine and his boys can be as unsavory as the Nazi variety Tarantinos latest cinematic prot g Eli director of Hostel Roth is aptly cast as a self-styled golem fond of pulping Nazis with a baseball bat But get past that and the sometimes disconcerting shifts to another location and another set of characters and the movie should gather Angels & Demons [Blu-ray] Sony Pictures In Ron Howards thrilling
