The Plus and Minus of Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince

Yeah..

It’s been a week since my last write and ‘till now I haven’t got any fresh and brilliant idea to write.. I had this sort of idea crisis!

So, I decided to review this all people favorite movie. My favorite too, actually..

Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince!!

Dengan durasi sekitar dua setengah jam film ini mampu menyihir miliaran pasang mata di seluruh dunia. Sebagian orang merespon positif dengan mendefinisikan film ini sebagai, “kereeenn”, “amazing movie”, “it’s Rock”, dan lain sebagainya.

Tapi ada juga yang merespon jelek. Alasan umum sih karena mereka merasa kecewa lantaran apa yang di imajinasikan selama ini sewaktu membaca novel sama sekali bertolak belakang dengan visualisasi di film.

Malah ada loh temen saya yang sama sekali ngga ada niatan nonton karena udah merasa terlalu kecewa dengan film-film Harry Potter yang terdahulu.

It’s not fair after all. Seperti kata Hanung Bramantyo, film ya film dan buku ya buku. Bahkan sutradara yang paling handal sekali pun ngga akan bisa menuangkan isi buku ke dalam sebuah film secara sempurna. Mendekati sempurna pun ngga akan bisa.

Saya sendiri sebagai pencinta buku Harry Potter (more than its movies) merasakan sedikit kecewa di sana-sini tapi over all mata saya benar-benar dimanjakan dengan special effect yang keren dan casts nya yang sangat sedap dipandang mata. Hehe. Saya mah berusaha positif aja dan melihat dari sisi yang berbeda. Makanya, ini dia saya bikin list plus-minus nya. Here we go…..



The Plus'

  • Visual effects di awal film benar-benar keren, menurut saya. Scene jembatan runtuh nya cool! The death Eaters nya juga benar-benar ngasih efek terror yang oke.
  • Acting 3 pemeran utamanya sebagai Harry, Hermione, dan Ron semakin matang dan terlihat semakin natural sebagai sahabat.
  • Lagi-lagi, special effect yang keren waktu Harry dan Dumbledore di Black Lake. Ooohh, dan waktu Dumbledore ngeluarin api buat ngusir mayat-mayat. Walaupun itu ngga ada di buku sih.
  • A lot more funny dialogue. Bukan cuma lucu tapi cerdas! Walaupun, lagi-lagi, ngga ada di buku. Kayak waktu di perpustakaan Hermione bilang ke Harry, “they’re interesting on you because they’re think you’re the chosen one” yang dijawab sama Harry, “But I am the chosen one” dan Harry sukses dapat geplakan buku di kepalanya karena omongannya yang nyeleneh itu.
  • Scene pertandingan Quidditch pertama Ron lucu banget. Rupert Grint emang lucu sih! Gayanya itu loohhh, ngocok perut banget! And that Quidditch game was awesome!
  • Rupert Grint lagi waktu scene dia kena Love Potion. Gebleg banget!
  • Bonnie Wright was fulfilling my expectation of Ginny Weasley.
  • Scene Harry setelah minum Felix Felicis juga oke. Ternyata Daniel Radcliffe bisa juga berekspresi najong gitu pas Aragog mati. hehehe

The Minus’

  • Lavender Brown-nya Lebay abis. Trus, where’s Parvati Patil? Doesn’t she known as Lavender’s BFF in Gryffindor?
  • Where’s the moment of Gryffindor win the Quidditch cup?? And Ginny and Harry should’ve been kissed after Quiddith final game. They shouldn’t have been kissed in requirement room!
  • Where’s the battle between death eaters and Order of phoenix in the end? Harusnya itu kan klimaks nya! Dan harusnya itu ada! Masa cuma death eaters nya doank yang ngerusak kastil!
  • Where’s the Dumbledore’s funeral?? Pemakaman Dumbledore harusnya ada karena itulah momen Harry merasa sangat sedih dan jadi terobsesi menyelesaikan tugas mencari Horcrux. Di saat itu juga dia terpaksa harus mutusin Ginny.
  • Where are Fleur DeLacour and Bill Weasley?? Harusnya mereka ada karena mereka kan tunangan di sini dan ada beberapa intrik yang lucu antara Fleur dan Mrs. Weasley. Selain itu harus diceritain tentang Bill yang diserang Greyback sehingga jadi cacat kan?


Pihak Warner Bros sebagai produser Harry Potter berjanji akan lebih maksimal dengan lebih banyak memasukkan adegan di buku ke dalam film. That’s why, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows will be made into 2 movies! And the last battle will be fantastic, as they promise. The first movie will be released in November 2010 and the second one will be on around March 2011. Yeeaaayyyyy!!

I Want to be Hermione Granger

first, I've got to inform this..

I woke up late this morning, 09.30 and got shocked of the news. Again, there was an explosion in two 5- star hotels in Jakarta. Ritz Carlton and JW Marriott Hotel in Kuningan became terrorist target and it was the second time for JW Marriott hotel!
So far (in the mean time I write this) 6 people died and more than 10 people injured. Some are foreigners.

It’s truly heart breaking news for us. In the last few years we've been living in a quite peace time and suddenly that kind of thing happened again. And the worst is that exactly one day before Manchester United was suppose to play here! It’s very very bad! Would they keep come and play? What is the world gonna say?

*sigh*

let’s just hope things would get better.

now, off to my main topic..

Completing my Harry Potter fever (usually comes after the movie has released) with so much pleasure i'm writing this one..

Since I read Harry potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone when I was in 5th grade, I have always mesmerized by this girl,
Hermione Granger.

(with Ron Weasley)


She’s such an independent girl, brave, extremely clever. She’s arrogant and selfish but in the coolest way I’ve ever imagined. She never afraid of what people say about her and keeps doing what she believes (and fortunately, it never goes wrong). Her ability to analyze problems is amazing, and with no rush she eventually can solve it.

She isn’t very pretty (I talk about the one in the book; Emma Watson is way too pretty) but always confident with herself (except when her teeth became weirdly long in vol.6). She plays along with the boys without losing her femininity.

She comes from a Muggle family and has to survive among the so-called Mud-bloods and she's doing well. She proves to everyone that a Muggle-born could be as great as a pure blood, even greater. She started from zero and turns up into a hero!

She’s kind of a girl who used to obey all the rules but finally realized that she’s having fun breaking the rules. (That’s why she rocks!)

If it weren’t for Hermione, Harry maybe would never reach the 7th grade in Hogwarts. Hahahaha. Harry could be the main actor in the whole story but Hermione plays a huge role as well (without forgetting about Ron, off course).

Shortly, Hermione Granger is my childhood heroine. Heck, she's my ultimate heroine even now!
