Summary: I recommend this title
Review: I've read all four books of Harry Potter and can't wait for the next. And of course I'd like to see the movie. The movie is excellent, but I feel a little bit frustrated because so many things has been cut out from the original story. The thrill of the books because of the way the writer expressing exaggeratingly on what happen to the character, that's what make it so fun to read. And the character, besides Harry, Hermione and Ron is nice too, especially Fred & George and of course in the other books, Oliver Wood. However, I still like the movie and keep recommending to each of my family member to watch it. Mind you, I'm 31 years old actually, but I like to watch it so that I can share the fun with my kids and nieces and nephews.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Realize
Review: First off, I am a thirty year old male with three children. When this movie was first released I had no idea who Harry Potter was, but my kids were very excited. When I took them to see it I was totally impressed, so much so I went out and bought all four books to read for myself.

Now second, all this negative feedback about the movie compared to the book has got to stop. You have to realize that the film makers have to take a four hundred page book and reduce it into a two hour movie. They do not have the time to go into all the detail of the characters background. When was the last time any of you have seen a movie, based on a book, be 100% right on. Let me answer this. NEVER.

Thank You.

Review: I think that the movie was good but they missed out on tons of cool stuff! They missed lots of good Fred and George jokes.

I loved the show though!

Summary: Left out or forgotten??
Review: I read the book when the third came out. By then I had already grown a love for the book and went on to read the others. When I heard that the movie was coming out I reread the book to make sure that I would remember everything that they put into the movie from the book. When I saw the movie I was a bit unhappy. Yes the effects were great. I was very disappointed with the ending though. Each room is supposed to have a different teacher's trick in it to stop whoever tries to get the stone but many were left out. Snape's potion room with the accompanying riddle was forgotten as well as the troll. All of the friends had part in getting Harry to the stone and the mirror. Hermione was supposed to stay with Harry until the potions room where she takes the potion to go back while Harry takes the potion to go foreward. Overall it is alright, these portions mentioned are very key to the story and would not have harmed the movie sales if anything it would have made it more popular to the hardcore book lovers like myself.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Fun for all
Review: Whenever I watch a film I attempt to categorize it before I go, that way my expectations are usually met. Then I read the reviews of adults trashing the movie as not "confronting the social-economic issues" Ummm, last time I looked.. Harry Potter is a kids movie. I have not spoken to one child upset about the movie, sad it didn't deal more with the treatment of Harry by his Aunt and Uncle. It's a great film, fun to watch, follows the natural progression of the book. The characters all play theirs roles well. Fun for young and old. Just maybe not a 30 year old geek wrapped up in a children's book.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: This Movie was OKAY
Review: This movie I liked a lot. I have to say the book is a lot better. This movie seems to have been a bit boring at times and not always following the book. Although, I do think this movie had some excellent graphics. Fluffy was amazing, the graphics I mean. The casting, I think, was perfect. They chose the best people they could find. I also think they look extroardinarily like I pictured them in the book. I do still think that this movie could've been better directed. The movie practically had them walking around half of the time to a class or other. This is what I had to say on this movie. I still think, though, the books were a lot better.

Rating: 5 stars
