I am a really big fan of the HP series, but this is probably my least favourite in the series. It does have a lot of faithfulness to the book, and for Potter fans like myself, what more could you ask? Even if you're not a fan of the series and want to see it, you don't really have to have an extensive knowledge of the books to enjoy the film. Besides, even if you've never touched a Harry Potter book in your life, you probably still know who he is. He's an … more

Orphaned as a baby, Harry was sent to live with his terribly cruel Uncle Vernon and his family, Aunt Petunia and Dudley.

It is too funny that your son and yourself fight over who is getting to read the books of the Harry Potters series but that is what happened in our house. So of course when the movies came out, it was pandemonium. I love all of the Harry Potter movies. Nothing bad to say about any of them. This was in particular a great movie and love to see Hagrid, Harry, Ron, and the Professor in action. It is also very fun to watch Harry and all the kids grow up and the peculiar teachers at … more

Very faithful to the book, but a tad bit long. Great performances by a very young cast.

When I read this book, I felt scared for Harry, because of all that he went through. I would be scared, too if I found out that I was a wizard and had to go to a magical school. I would recommend this book to anyone that might have always felt different from others. The setting takes place at Hogwarts, a secret and magical school for witches and wizards. This book is about a boy that who learns that he is … more

The first of the series is so great, not only because of the happy ending and generally positive note (compared to the last volumes , for instance), but becaus eit somehow has a magical quality of almost making fantasy real and reality fantastic. I know after reading it, when being on the railway staion, I could not help to look at the walls and wonder,...what would it be like if that would be a secret passage to another world?

One of my favorite out of all the movies. I like how Harry finds out for the first time that he is a wizard.
