Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince - Starring Daniel Radcliffe, Michael Gambon, Rupert Grint, Emma Watson, and the rest of the cast you’ve come to expect from the Potter movies
Harry (Radcliffe) begins his sixth year at Hogwarts in a whirlwind. Dumbledore (Gambon) pops up out of nowhere with his hand mangled. He teleports Harry to the middle of, god knows where, introduces this chapter’s new character, dumps Harry back at the Weasley’s, and Harry’s latest nemesis Bellatrix swoops in with some devastation.

Harry then goes to Hogwarts. Once there he winds up with an arcane potions book that belonged to the Half Blood Prince. The plot moves along a lot of important details and character development, and love interests show up all over the place. …. Half Blood Prince is probably the most-dense plot of all the Potter movies, and serves as a TON of setups for the final two installments. Buyer beware - the film is a long one, but a must see if you’re a series fan. You don’t really feel it’s long since so much happens, but you are warned! B+ (Joe Allison)

Funny People - Starring Adam Sandler, co-starring Seth Rogan. Directed by Judd Apatow
Judd Apatow and his team have produced yet another comedy-drama. Adam Sandler (George Simmons) plays a famous, self-absorbed stand-up comedian-taking life for granted. After being diagnosed with a terminal illness George, begins to reconsider what matters most in his life.

Seth Rogan, (Ira Weiner), an awkwardly lady-shy and less glorified stand-up, is noticed by George at an improv comedy club. The largely famous comedian realizes Ira’s comedic talent and asks him to write material for him and be his opening act. The laughs then begin to rapidly snowball between the two character’s (and company’s) delivery of Apatow’s familiar, witty, clever and reference-filled written humor. A- (Misty Johnson)
