Summary: Great Movie, Rubbish Title
Review: This was a great movie, and as far as i'm concerned a faithful adaptation of the book.But why do the americans have to go and change the title? To the whole world (except the US), the book (and movie) is called "Harry potter and the philosopher's stone". Do they not know what a philosopher is?

Summary: Oh well...
Review: There are too many problems with the movie. Adding to this, the film is based upon the worst book of the series so far. What one could expect? Well, Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone is an attempt of adapting the brilliant writing of JK Rowling this, however, is not accomplished. Some storylines which make perfect sense in the book, in the movie stays a feeling of a badly glued mix up of scenes having only in common Harry. Hagrid's Dragon for instance is one of these badly glued storylines, I would rather if they didn't spoke of it at all!! The meeting with Malfoy is undescribable... there's no sense at all in everything... why would Malfoy go to their compartment? In the book everything is different of course. All in all and without continuing this incessant ranting, I will give 2 stars out of five to the movie just in honour of the very good acting of "Hermione" and "Professor McGonagall"; The lack of stars are totally due to the somewhat naive attempt of putting everything of the book in a movie which gets too long too early. I hope that this movie will be, as the book is, the worst of the series.

Summary: Great movie
Review: Ok let's get down to the movie it did well and left some stuff out but heck if they didn't cut some scenes the film might have been 4 hours long which no child or parant would want to sit through. So they cut some scenes from the book and the ending was kinda diffrent but other then that this movie is the BEST!!!

Summary: Not for us over 18
Review: Im 18 and after reading the books and seeing the first movie I said I would not see any of the other movies which is a lie.
But I think they choose a kiddy director you know he did Miss. Doubtfire and Home Alone. I think Steven Spilberg made a good choice not to do this film. But I do hope he does the third movie as he said three and four are the ones he is interested in. I know this is a movie targeted for kids but I think they should go for all audiences. Some people will lie and say its just like the book and they are little kids who dont know any better.

Summary: BEST MOVIE EVER!
Review: Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone was by far the most astounding movie I have ever seen. I don't know what people are talking about when they say it was the worst movie ever. It was BLOODY BRILLIANT! With J.K. Rowling's brilliant imagination, an award winning cast, and some great special affects, it is with no question that Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone is the best movie of the year!

Summary: Family movie of the year
Review: I think Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone is the best family movie and the best fantasy movie. This movie was BLOODY BRILLIANT!! It might have some parts missing, but if they made the movie without any parts missing it would be a day long. You should go see the movie. I liked it so much that I am going to buy the DVD or VHS. The movie has great visual effects. It has great cast and a great director.I am glad that Chris Columbus picked Rupert Grint to play the role of Ronald Weasly and Daniel Radcliffe to play the role of Harry Potter because I think Rupert Grint and Daniel Radcliff are cute. The actors/actresses were great. I think the Quiditch scene was great. Chris Columbus should make at least 3 movies of Harry Potter. J.K. Rowling is the best author and Chris Columbus is the best director.

Summary: This movie's got it ALL!!!
Review: No matter what anyone says; I absolutely love this movie. I enjoy it so much, I can't stop thinking about it, wanting to go see it like every 10 seconds and what's worse... I've never had any interest in Harry Potter before! Well, if that doesn't say anything, then I don't know what will.
Daniel Radcliffe is adorable in this movie and plays the role so bloody brilliant, it gives me the shivers!
Seriously, this movie has got it all; it's got fantasy, excitement, tenderness and drama. All in one!! If you haven't seen it allready; be ashamed, be VERY ashamed, because it's that good, you have to see it AT LEAST once in the theatre!
Well, I guess I made my point. And ehm... no comparisons with LOTR, because that's a total different genre and for opinions about that; you're on the WRONG PAGE! HARRY ROCKS!!!

Summary: Somebody please stop Chris Columbus from making movies
Review: I haven't read the book or another Harry Potter books before seening this movie and still hasn't read the books. This is yet another long Chris Columbus film. It runs at 2 hours and 32 minutes. Harry Potter (Daniel Ratcilffe) is an oprhan who is sent to live with his mean aunt and uncle who doesn't like him. So when Harry Potter turns 11 years old, he starts getting letters from Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. His uncle finds out and hides letter after letter before somebody finally decides to go to his aunt and uncle's house and tell him that he has been to go to school at Hogwarts. He of course doesn't believe this and why should he? I recomended you to read the book first and then see the movie. While on the train to Hogwarts, Harry Potter meets two of his future freinds and also first years at Hogwarts, Ronlad "Ron" Weasly (Rupert Grint) and bossy Herimone Granger (Emma Waston). And I guess becomes rivals with another first year student Draco Malfoy (Tom Felton), but the movie fails to mention during the 2 hours and a half that Malfoy and Potter has become rivals, and really learn about that in Harry Potter and the Chamber of Sercets. Still this is a good movie to see for Harry Potter fans.
