Summary: Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone
Review: Where do I begin? HP and Sorcerer's Stone was excellent in its own way, but having read the book, I find that I wanted more. The movie could have been four hours long to do the book justice. Many characters had little or no recognition: the Slytherin students hating on Harry and his friends, Percy, the Weasley twins... And Daniel should sharpen his developing acting skill. [Emma and Rupert were excellent!!!]But the movie had high points, like the visuals, which are eye-candy. And some laughs. Quidditch was absolutely AMAZING!!!

Summary: Lived up to my expectations.
Review: Yes, I was not that thrilled with choice of director, but (...) loved the movie. The child actors were fantastic, and the movie remained quite true to the book. Actually, at 2 1/2 hours, it was STILL too short!

Review: I have to say this was THE best movie EVER! I saw it about an hour ago and LOVED it! It really brought the books to life. Chris Columbus did an excellent job of directing. The cast was brilliant! I can't wait to see it again even though I just saw it!

Summary: Great Movie!!!
Review: Not being a big Harry Potter fan UP TILL NOW, I went to see this movie expecting it to be corny and for kids. But I was very wrong. I enjoyed this movie from beginning to end. Don't think your "too cool" for this movie. This movie is a family movie but I also will tell you that you should go by the rating, PG, for violent reasons. I recommend this to EVERYBODY. And I believe this is not an "evil" film as some of you say. I think it is only evil if you take it as reality and believe in it. This is just a fun family film with fairytale wizardy as you parents read in books as children. Just enjoy it and explain to your kids it's not real. It was worth every penny!!!

Summary: the movie melted!
Review: I have to admit it, I'm absolutely crazy about Harry Potter. I've (obviously) read all the books, gone to the websites, and know the words of the trailers by heart. I worked things out so that I could go to the 12:00 show on Friday. I was almost crying when the movie began-- it's so exciting, sitting there, seeing Privet Drive up on the screen. It's finally happening. It's true that I noticed every single little thing that was added, everything that was changed, everything that was cut. ("He gets a 'pick-me-up' after Gringotts, not Hedwig!" "He clicks the Put-Outer twelve times!" "He doesn't only try two wands before finding the right one!" "Don't the Dursleys take him to Platform 9 3/4?") My sisters and I also poked each other every time a line from the trailers came on!! This movie is definitely more enjoyable if you've read the books, but if you know the basic plot, you can follow along. The movie isn't as good as the books, but are they ever as good as the books? I didn't expect the movie to be as good as the books, but for what it was, it was pretty good. They added in some funny parts (like when Dudley falls into the snake's cage and gets trapped behind the glass; that's not in the book, or when the chocolate frog starts hopping). Emma, Rupert and Daniel are so cute, you just can't help loving them. The Gryffindor common room looks exactly like how I imagined it. Quidditch looks incredible -- they move so fast! The music was great, and I definitely plan on buying the soundtrack. I did have a few problems with the movie. The troll looked strange, I can't place my finger on it, but I didn't like it. I didn't like Diagon Alley either. It was too harsh of a contrast. Diagon Alley looked like it came from the Medieval Ages. It just didn't match what my mind had conceived. Some parts that they had cut I missed. I didn't like it when Harry dissed Draco in public, rather than on the train. ("I think I know what wizards are the right sort, thank you" or something to that extent.) My number one problem with the movie, however, was that I DIDN'T GET TO FINISH IT. The film melted, or something like that, and I missed about an hour of it. :( Still, I wanted to review it. GO SEE THIS MOVIE-- it's definitely worth your money. But know that it IS better if you've read the books.

Summary: Best Movie Ive Ever Seen!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Review: At first I thought that this movie would just rip the book off. But i was wrong. this movie was one of the best ive ever seen! There are some things left out since it would make the movie to long but it is still excelent. The special effects are great and all the charactors fit exactly. The book is better but the movie was close behind. The Quidditch match was amazing. The only thing that i wish that had happened is that Rons brothers had a bigger part in it. Another thing that made me mad was that harrys hair was not wild but straight. But it was an all over great movie! And i would recomend every one to see it!!!!

Review: I thought all did very good,buttttt,it didnt work for me. Im not an H.P. fan so I found it long and tedious. All the camera work was great, though. But I found myself wanting to leave after about an hour. Beautiful scenery.

Summary: Good, but not quite there
Review: I went into this movie really hyped up, because I have read all the books, but I came out a little disappointed. In this movie it seems like they rushed through it really quickly and didn't really give time for things to sink in. It was also missing some major parts, such as Harry and Hermione taking the dragon up to the tower to set it free. Instead they said Dumbledore sent the dragon to Romania. Even though it seemed to rush, it had great special effects, and mentioned all the important parts. Harry, Ron, and Hermione were greatly played. Chris Columbus definatly picked the right people for the parts. I would have liked to see the Weasley twins have a more major part, but Ron made up for them. You should still go and see this movie, because it was still really great. Remember to read the books first!!
