    I went in not haveing one ounc of interest in the movie or the story line. I was seeing for my best friend. I walked out of the movie totally amazed. That night I picked up the Philosopher s Stone and started reading. That was a week ago, and now I m almost finished The Prinsoner of Azkaban. What does that tell you? I LOVE HARRY POTTER!!! I think everyone who like that kind of story should see, and even if you don t you will mostly likely come out loving as much as the rest. One last word... FLUFFY RULES!!!

    Was really good! It was done extremely well! Congrats to all the actors! I liked it a lot though it forgot things in the book I know I am being picky but it just left out too much!

    A film full of british arrogance (read cold and distant), and very little childhood. I have doubts that children actually enjoyed it, because it failed to keep the tension and it is too long.

    Harry Potter is an amazing book and a great movie. I was really worried when i found out they were making a movie and that i would distroy the book, however, it is not the case. Thank-you to the directors for staying so true to the book!
