5.1/6
Harry is in his Potions class Under the tutelage of Severus Snape, A teacher who seems to hate him, And who wears a cool cape. He discovers a used Potions book With tons of little notes. He tries them out, finds that they work, And keeps the booklet in his tote. The notes come from the Half-Blood Prince, A mystery to young Harry, But he shrugs it off and aces the class, And his classmates admire Harry. Harry’s rival, Draco, Is given a sinister task. He must up and murder Dumbledore, Or he’ll never finish his class. Voldemort is up to other acts Of violence and of terror. He kills and tortures people And makes them disappear. He has allies and an Army, Getting stronger by the day. He knows that his vengeance Is just a little time away.
Harry and Dumbledore Discover the Horcrux, Which tells them that Voldemort’s soul Is sundered into little chunks. Perhaps six pieces of his soul Have been hidden in distant places. They will have to destroy each one To close all these Voldemort cases. With all pieces gone, he’ll surely die. No more Voldemort, But if they miss even one, They will certainly come up short. This big idea becomes the plot for the next two Harry films. This one gets a five point one. It’s an excellent sixth film.
