The Harry Potter franchise is now world-famous, but the series all began with the very first story, Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone.  The book, written by J.K. Rowling in 1997, was quickly picked up to be made into a movie.  My 14-year-old self, who was avid fan of the books,... Read full review »

I'll probably have trouble sitting through all of these, but I've decided to take a critical look at the Harry Potter films, though most likely I won't hold them under close scrutiny as A. They don't really deserve it and B. the kids that watch these movies probably don't look for the things that I... Read full review »

Pros Pretty much everything.
Cons There's nothing worth complaining about.
Recommended it? Yes

It's a very rare person who hasn't watched a Harry Potter movie or read one of the books (admittedly I know a few of the poor souls who haven't).  And for good reason, the books especially are excellent, and the movies not bad adaptations at all.  Of course I always recommend reading...

I once said Harry Potter was like Lord Of The Rings, to my surprise I was on the receiving end from a roar of laughter; a gob full of teeth. Firstly she was laughing because she strongly felt that it had no similarities. Secondly her laughter seemed so forced I’m guessing it was an impressive... Read full review »

We are big fans of the Harry Potter books, so naturally we wanted to see the movies as well. Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone sticks to the book well and leaves little detail out.

Pros Family friendly

Mistreated Harry is invited to Hogwarts repeatedly.  Eventually he is allowed to go and the adventure begins.  Creating the Harry Potter movies must be terribly difficult when it comes to deciding what to leave out.  I would not want that job. Read full review »

I came late and somewhat backwards to the world of Harry Potter.
