So much time could have been detracted from the silly romances to focus on more important things which were completely ommitted or deliberately changed. Not to mention the ending of the film was brutally butchered. In the movie the romance takes up most of the screen time. The romance was there although it didn't detract from the main plot and at times was intertwined with the larger goings-on at hogwarts. JK Rowling masterfully crafted a novel that was perfectly balanced. Yes, there is romance in the sixth book but not shoved down your throat. Everything that made the book amazing was ripped from the film, and instead replaced by annoying large quantities of romantic subplot. As a fan of the books and having had no SERIOUS gripes with any of the other films, I must say i HATED the screenplay for this one. But the key element which was boosted this franchise into world-class fame, is the story. This installment obviously stepped everything up a notch: the cinematography, the special effects, the darker score, the improved acting, etc. And only because there are so many parts to a film. It stands it's ground as a film better than any of the others of the series. Half Blood Prince as a movie alone was very good.
