Summary: Great movie!!!!!
Review: I liked it for one reason i wasn't a harry potter fan i actually sort of hated it and didn't know why every one liked it so much one day i went to the movies andthe movie i wanted to see was soldout so i saw harry potter and it was relly good but since i never read the book i didn't know if it was that good then i read the book and it is like it not totally (but then none of the books turned into movies are excatly like the books) it was close but when you read the book your imagination can do much more things than movie special effects. over all i read all the books and can't wait to see the movies. if you reaaly like harry potter then buy the DVD.

Summary: harry is the man
Review: ...complain about the cutting up of the book and definately the first time i saw it (opening night, hell yeah!) it was like woah wait where are they but the second time it made more sense and when the dvd comes out i expect it to make more and more sense with every viewing. Emma Watson definately was the best actor in the whole group, she was mad good. Harry was alright too but Ron well he's Ron i guess i shouldn't have expected much. But the storyline makes up for any flaws any actor would have. They could have cast Tom Cruise as Harry and the story would have still worked alright. This is a great movie and with the promise of more storyline with deleted scenes it should be pretty insane. Check this movie out now.

Summary: Potter Rules
Review: I am a huge fan of everything Potter and very much enjoyed the film. I was thrilled that as it was a British book, set in britain and written by a Brit, that it was kept this way through out. Not that im slating other countries and their films, it was just so refreshing that it was all kept as it should and was in the book. I cant wait for the next book and for chamber to be released on film. Naturally there were many scenes left out and a few things changed for the film, but if they had put everything in the film, it would have had to be at least 4 hours long.
Bravo Harry, cant wait to see you again!!

Summary: Harry Potter is AWESOME!
Review: I think Harry Potter and the Socerer's Stone is an excellent book and movie. There is tons of action and a totally mystirerious plot. I love all the characters and I think that Chris Columbus really brought the story alive. The movie was great except for that in the book, there are no moving staircases! I just reread it and no, there are no moving staircases. o well. Movie makers have to change it a little bit. I still LOVE IT!...

Summary: If you need a lift from real life - this movie will do it
Review: A delighful movie for the 21st century... it surely fits, like The Wizzard Of Oz did for the 20th century. I viewed my new dvd on my new wide screen tv and I was facinated with joy and good feelings. Entertainment at its best to escape an unsatisfactory day.

Summary: This movie was O.K.
Review: I have been a Harry Potter fan after the fourth book came out. I didn't see what all the fuss was about and so decided to read the first one for myself. Let me tell you, it really bowled me over! I had imagined so many amazing things, the character personalities, Quidditch matches, etc! I have also listen to Jim Dale's narrations on the books-on-tape and I believe he does each voice to perfection.
The movie, however, was a different story. I understand that WB had to keep the movie under a certain time-limit, but there are so many things left out of the film that it's embarrassing. Everything J.K. Rowling had mentioned in the Sorcerer's Stone was explained in the later books, for example, Parseltongue. If they plan to make a movie for all the books (which I seriously doubt), this little aspect will be important in the other films. There was no mention of Sirius Black, a very important character in the Prisoner of Azkaban, and other little things that serious fans would notice. We took notes during the second time we watched the movie and there were many things missing. I heard that J.K. Rowling herself was at the studio filmings and she told the director how she wanted things to be portrayed, but it's still very lacking.
I will buy this movie, only because I am such a fan, but after the second time in the theaters, I said, "That's it, i'm not watching it in here anymore." because even for me, a fanatic in the truest sense, it's disappoiting. Read the book; the movie could never do it justice.

Summary: I have seen the DVD, and it is amazing!
Review: My video store got an advance copy of Harry Potter on DVD and the quality is superb! Plus, I love watching movies in the Widescreen format, but this movie looks great in Full Screen. There were no features on the disc, except a teaser and a theatrical trailer. But I will definitely buy the 2-disc edition on DVD, when it is officially released. The quality is sharp, the sound is terrific. The colors are vibrant, you can see every little detail. Ron's hair looks very bright on this DVD, I think Warner over did it with that. But no complaints here. Great looking DVD!

Summary: Oh yeah!
Review: I am surprised and pleased at the outcome of this movie. I certainly relished reading the books because of the pictures I could paint in my mind, but I also enjoyed watching those characters come to life. I thought Ron, Harry, and Hermione were perfect for their roles! As a teacher, I can only hope the movie will inspire more kids to read the remainder of the books. To those people who think this inspires witchcraft....read it with an open mind! This is a book about fantasy. It does not promote evil in any way, shape or form...

Summary: GREAT FUN FOR THE READER/VIEWER
Review: This was great fun for the viewer who has read the books. Can't wait for the remainder of the movies to be released. For those who say that HARRY POTTER is evil, I say: get a life, get a grip, get an education, hide your ignorance and quit spreading your religio-cult fanatic fantasies around to simply scare others because you are too terrified to live life in the actual real world.
