Book drags it down Feb 26, 2010 I think this is one of the least successful Harry Potter movies, but's mainly the book's fault. Rowling was trying to copy the success of PHILOSOPHER'S STONE, but hadn't figured out how to scale it up to a big series yet. So once again we have a story that ends up with
(1) Harry and a best friend figuring out how to get in a trap door
(2) The best friend getting waylaid halfway through and sending Harry away.
(3) Harry confronting an evil wizard underground.
Other problems:
To an adult reader/viewer, Lockhart is an obvious fraud from the start, yet it takes everybody in the story forever to catch on. Branaugh fleshed him out a little, but he's still tiresome.
So Harry and Ron think it's OK to put drugs in candy as part of their investigation?
So Hermione turns herself into a cat by accident and it takes several weeks to wear off. And nobody in the school administration asks how it happened (if they did, and found out about the drug angle, the trio would probably be expelled)
So Ginny is depressed and alienated, and neither her brother Ron nor the perceptive Hermione notices anything. Doesn't that make them look insensitive?

Better than I expected. Feb 10, 2010 The box arrived on time and in perfect condition. The artwork is beautiful and the extra material is very addicting. I cannot wait for the other movies!

More of the good stuff 2 Feb 06, 2010 Again, like the first one, it has more info on the 2nd disc that makes it interesting. Love it.

Replacing VHS Feb 06, 2010 I got this for my Fiancé for Christmas to replace her old VHS. She was really happy to finally have the DVD copy. It was shipped quickly and for free since it was from Amazon and I was signed up for the free shipping thing. You might want to look into that if you buy a lot! I think it was something like $75 for the year for free shipping for everything from Amazon and you can usually find whatever you want from them and get free shipping and if it's $5 each time that will add up quickly!

Potter Movie Feb 04, 2010 This was purchased for a huge potter fan. She loves all the movies and books and this is one of her favorites. The additional scenes are great and the interviews and segments on how scenes were made are wonderful.
