"Why is it, whenever something happens, it is always you three?" - Professor McGonagall

Why watch this? The sixth film is darker than its predecessors.

Plot Summary: Lord Voldemort is tightening his grip on the wizarding and Muggle worlds, with Hogwarts no longer a safe haven. Harry suspects danger within the school, but Dumbledore focuses on preparing him for the final battle and recruits former Potions master Horace Slughorn for vital information about Voldemort's past. Meanwhile, teenage romance blossoms among the students as a darker path unfolds for one, leading to tragedy that may forever change Hogwarts.

Dad's Preview: The time has come to usher in the return of Lord Voldemort. There is also a lot of time spent finding Horcruxes, which are essentially parts of Tom Riddle's soul. The pressure on Harry has become almost overwhelming, with every thought and conversation having more weight to it. The film's cinematography is wonderful, and it perfectly sets up the final, bleak chapter, coming in the final Deathly Hallows films.
