Harry suspects that new dangers may lie within the castle, but Dumbledore is more intent upon preparing him for the final battle that he knows is fast approaching.

Summary
Add a SummaryHarry is shown bleeding in front of the Ministry of Magic, as the result of an attack that took place after the second-to-last scene of the previous film, Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix. Lord Voldemort is tightening his grip on both the Wizarding and Muggle worlds and has chosen Draco Malfoy to carry out a secret mission. Severus Snape accepts Bellatrix Lestrange's challenge to make an Unbreakable Vow with Draco's mother, Narcissa, to protect Draco and fulfill the assignment if he fails. Harry accompanies Albus Dumbledore to visit former potions professor Horace Slughorn, who has gone into hiding. Slughorn agrees to return to teach at Hogwarts as Dumbledore tells Harry that Slughorn's return to Hogwarts is crucial. Leaving Fred and George's new shop, Harry, Ron and Hermione notice Draco and Narcissa associating with Death Eaters in Borgin and Burkes. Harry believes Voldemort has made Draco a Death Eater, but Ron and Hermione are sceptical. On the Hogwarts Express, Harry spies on Draco, who hints to his friends that he does not plan to return to Hogwarts next year. Draco discovers Harry's presence and immobilises him, but Harry is rescued by Luna with her Spectrespecs

Add a Commenti guess it was a good movie, but they left out the whole big battle at the end where bill gets clawed, and they turned an adventure story into some kinda romance movie!! There was a lot of that stuff in the book, but not as much as in the movie. plus they totally messed up Harry and Ginny's kiss!!!
Awesome movie! My favorite of all the Harry Potter movies.
its a really good movie

One of the darker movies in the series, but just wasn't as compelling to me. The effects, action, acting and story were all on par with the rest of the series, but the character arcs weren't as interesting and there wasn't enough action for me. Some interesting developments and necessary plot points make it a must see for the series sake. Still an above average fantasy film, but not as good as the rest.
Snape is the worst!!! I wonder why they never showed him dead or dying........
Very good special effects. I didn't really follow the story line that close. the first one caught my attention the most, new/different story and all.
