- Guest.almost 6 yearsThe nostalgia that I have about this movie is even bigger than my love for it. This movie is the movie of my early childhood ( Like other harry potter movies ). Nothing else that have to say, if you haven't watched it, just go watch it, you won't regret.
- Harry's first year isn't just exams and lessons. It's a mystery to save a precious stone that holds immortality. Harry, Ron, Hermione must save a stone from Voldemort's posession.
- hat guyabout 6 yearswhy does harry look like he is a toddler on the cover and only 9 years old in the movie. (i think its his hair)
- This is a really AWESOME movie. It is the perfect start to this series. Can't wait to watch the rest of the movies AND of course read the books.
- I think, so far this movie is outstanding! I've read the book before, long before and it was just as good. The movie is a little bit different than the book but is also very exciting. I hope you liked this movie, if you haven't read it, just you wait. "You are a wizard Harry" :)
- 10/10 5-stars 30/30 recommended this book
- The Best siries
- I read the book and i found the movie very fun and cool but first read the book.
- " This is just like magic! "- Lockheart. I love that line. :) I think it's my 2nd favorite.
- Harry petted his owl, staring out into the night. In this fantastic movie, a boy who just thinks he is an unlucky orphan soon goes to Hogwarts a school for witches and wizards alike. Of course,as you expect, he gets into a bit of trouble around the beginning. But trouble occurs when Harry learns that someone is trying to steal a magic stone and for a terrible reason as well. So then its up to Harry, Hermione, and Ron to stop them. If you have not seen this wonderful movie, then you have not lived the right way.
