Two new reviews concerning Tom’s film Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince have recently found their way online. The Prague Post, the Czech-Republic’s English newspaper calls his portrayal as Draco Malfoy in HP6 a “breakout performance.”

But he comes into his own here, as a tortured coward struggling unsuccessfully to face his fears and become what he mistakenly conceives to be a man.

As for The Statesman, it looks like Tom had them rooting for the “bad guy.”

Tom Felton was exceptionally good in the movie. He presented Draco’s emotions so vividly that the sympathy of the audience changed from the Chosen One to the Dark Lord’s newest recruit.

We all know that often Tom lets his girlfriend choose his clothes for events, well – now it’s your turn!

At stardoll.com, they now have a Tom Felton doll available, and you can pick his clothes and dress him any way you like! Tom is considered a special premium doll, so a subscription is required before you get to play him.

I was lucky enough to get the opportunity to play with the Tom doll myself, and I was slightly disappointed that he had short hair and only a few outfits to choose from. I assume I could buy new hair and clothes but I couldn’t figure it out, LOL. Oh well. Nonetheless, I put together a few outfits and thought I’d share them here!

Thanks to November and shannonhearne for the tip!

PS. Sorry, Tom! 😉

Various photos of Tom have sprung up lately, and in case you haven’t been checking out the galleries, you might have missed them. Just a few notable adds include another photo of Tom in Soho, some unmarked premiere pics, and even photos taken by you the fans. Here are just a few, but in case you think you may have missed any others, you can check out our photo gallery by clicking here.

Moniqueblog, a Web site managed by Monique Jones (an artist and journalist), has posted a great article detailing why the character of Draco Malfoy is so attractive to Harry Potter fans.

The first reason, of course, is Tom Felton. 😉

J.K.R. has stated how it scares her to have fans speaking highly of Draco after watching the movies. “People have been waxing lyrical [in letters] about Draco Malfoy, and I think that’s the only time when it stopped amusing me and started almost worrying me,” she said in a 2005 interview. “I’m trying to clearly distinguish between Tom Felton, who is a good-looking young boy, and Draco, who, whatever he looks like, is not a nice man. It’s a romantic, but unhealthy…” This might sound like a backhanded compliment, but having Tom Felton as the supposed “slimy git” might have not been the best choice if J.K.R. wants readers to distinguish Draco the Character from Tom Felton the Person. As a member of the female gender, I’ll be the first to admit that Tom Felton is an attractive young man (and a terrific actor). People tend to respond better to good-looking people, and Felton’s looks help the audience to sympathize with Draco and even excuse many of his deep character flaws (I’m not saying that’s necessarily a good thing, but that’s just human nature). Attractiveness and a bad attitude is always a fatal combination that sends girls to the moon and causes boys to idolize.

Additionally, Monique has posted a nice revoew of the movie, including her impressions of Tom:

Personally, I was jumping on the inside when I finally saw Draco break down in the bathroom on screen (even though some girl sitting behind me laughed through the scene). And to see him hesitate to kill Dumbledore when he had the chance was just icing on the cake. The fact that Draco didn’t kill Dumbledore shows that while he may have perverse ideas about life and people’s place in it, he still has the ability to change.
