Summary: Cool Movie
Review: Harry Potter and the Chamber's of Secrets is a great movie ever. The funny part is Ron Weasley (Rupert Grint) broke his wand and he make funny faces himself. The thrilling part was the hissing part want the serpent appeared.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Great Entertainment For The Harry Potter Fan At Hand!
Review: Great! Flying Cars, Snakes, and the Pesky Malfoy! I do admit I haven't seen the DVD or the VHS but I've seen the movie in theaters. I have read the first 4 books. I was one of the first fans of Harry Potter. I read them way before the movies and I kinda didn't like them at first. But I tried it again and it was great! I've heard the DVD is GREAT! Just like the first DVD you get to attend Hogwarts and go to Diagon Alley. Sounds better then the first. BUT I HOPE YOU DON'T HAVE TO ATTEND HOGWARTS TO GET THOSE DELETED SCENES!!!!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: BEST MOVIE EVER!!
Review: I was first in line to see this movie the day it came out, and I saw it multiple times after. It was great!! This movie rates #1 on my list along with "The Sorceror's Stone" and the Lord of the Rings movies!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Better Than Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone
Review: I saw the first Harry Potter and absolutely love it. I also read the books. The Chamber of Secret was very good and better than the first one. Dobby was great. He looked very real. It did not look like it was computer generated. The special effect in the movie has certain improve from the first movie. I love the scene when Ron got the "Howler" letter from his mom. It was very funny. The movie was kept very close to the book this time.

I definiately recommmend this DVD. If you are a Harry Potter fan, you got to get the DVD and watch it again. If you are not, you should go watch. It is indeed a great film for all ages.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Movie is not released yet
Review: Seeing as how others have already reviewed this DVD despite the fact that it is not yet available I thought I would too.

I have not seen the DVD nor do I know how good the extra features are because it is not out yet.

I saw the movie in theatres, but some stupid kid in front of me kept standing up on his chair and then he fell down and started crying. Just thought I'd share that with you all because it can't be any less valuable than the reviews of all the other people who also can't possibly have seen this DVD 2 months prior to it's release.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: I want to go to school at Hogwarts
Review: I wasn't a big Harry Potter fan until I was forced to watch "The Sorceror's Stone" Now I can't get enough. I've read all the books available and I've seen the second movie several times and I can't wait for more! The introduction of Draco Malfoy's father brings in even more of the larger story that is Harry Potter's future. The movie is true to the second book and surpasses the effects of the first one. The movies (and books) are maturing with Harry and I can't wait to go see it again.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: If only there were a zero!!!!
Review: This movie was a piece of ****!! How could anyone rate it well... the characters are like little puppets except they're 2d puppets who have no feelings or emotions. When I was watching it I tried to look for the strings but had no luck.
First of all Ron is taller than Harry...not the other way around. Mrs. Dursley has blonde hair..not black.
Oh yeah great special effects. Special effects go along with the good plot not the other way around.
They skipped so much from the book and added in stuff that didn't matter. Ron is the character Rowling talked about 2nd most..not Hermione!
Wonder where they got the snake from. They probably went to the dollar tree and did a close up shot. The books sucked you in everytime you read them with magic and explaining each and every character with great emotion. The movie should have been a cartoon. If it weren't for spending 7.00 to get in the movie I would have walked right out the exit. Only three characters that were how I pictured them to be were Harry, Hagrid,and Dumbledore. All of the Weasleys are off.
If this is the way they intend to make each movie from the book series they should think again. Rowling would be a better director saying that she wrote the books.
I will see the Prisoner of Azkaban just so I can write a horrible review on it.
Overall both movies have ruined the books for me.
Great job director 2 books ruined already 5 books getting ready to be ruined.

SUGGESTION: Screw the movies!!!!! read the books!!! they're magical, amazing and excellent!!
Go JK Rowling you rock!!!!!! Greatest author ever.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Good but no where near great
Review: First of all the movies don't come close to comparing with the movies. In my opinion 2 stars is stretching it a little. I know they can't put every detail from the book in the movie but they do miss some things they shouldn't.
Some things they made wrong were Mrs. Dursley's hair. In the book it's blonde. In the movie she has black hair. In the book Ron is quite a lot bigger than Harry, but in the movie they're very close to the same size(Harry might even be bigger).
The rest in my opinion was pretty good but not great. Those things are big details that they obviously missed.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Great book... good movie
Review: I must begin by letting the public know that the Harry Potter series is one of my favorite book series EVER. Interesting story line, lovable (and terrible) characters... Mrs. Rowling has everything. Most movies never live up to their book counterparts, but this is a movie that is surely close to doing so.

First off, the acting of the kids have improved. Dan Radcliffe has gotten quite good at being a sweet-looking hero with a tragic past, and the already superb skills of Rupert Grint and Emma Watson have only gotten better. Hermione, who seemed overly know-it-all-like in the first movie, has become more like the book character, who is an insufferable know-it-all with good intentions. One major nitpick for me was how minor a character Ginny Weasley (Ron's sister) was. It seemed that she would have been cut out, but she was needed for the later plot. And the Valentine sequence was cut out. Maybe I'm the only one who felt that Ginny needed more screen time.

The CG-ed scenes were a lot better than before. Quidditch scenes were amazing. They were a lot faster and more realistic (if flying on a broom can be realistic) than the last time around. Dobby didn't look quite like I imagined, but it seemed as though he was really in there, not as if he was placed in the picture afterward. The Spider (Aragog) scenes... that was scary, but watching Rupert be adorably frightened? Priceless. And the final battle... well, you'll have to see for yourself.

Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets was certainly a big improvment on its preceedor, and it certainly has not torn Mrs. Rowling's magic apart, but it isn't the book. I recommend that you see it, but try to read the books, also. They are two seperate things, but I feel that it will be a more rewarding experience with the combination of canon and the movie.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Better than the first!
Review: I think this movie this was better than the first one. I like how they tried keeping things close to the book as possible. If you're a true HP Fan then this is a must have in your collection. I should also mention, great parseltongue scene with Harry and the snake.
