Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone Audience Reviews

GazerRise Fantastic!

PiraBit if their story seems completely bonkers, almost like a feverish work of fiction, you ain't heard nothing yet.

Guillelmina The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.

Geraldine The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

adonis98-743-186503 Rescued from the outrageous neglect of his aunt and uncle, a young boy with a great destiny proves his worth while attending Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Even tho some of it's effects look pretty dated (especially the Troll in the bathroom) and the running time is a bit longer than it might needed to be 'Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone' is a fun adventure full of magic and great chemistry between the 3 leads but also a very interesting story and twists from start to finish as for Chris Columbus direction? It was definitely more into the magic stuff than the later installments....!!!! (9.0/10)

hmendenhallitunes What the hell guys... I've read the books like probably 20+ times and yes they aren't necessarily close to the movies but the movies were still fricking fantastic!! I'm a die hard harry potter fan and those who say that Daniel Radcliffe isn't a good actor is stupid i mean he's eleven for hecks sake!!! If you hate it that much leave your nasty snarky comments to yourself

invisibleunicornninja This is a fun, though flawed movie. I'm not a big fan of this franchise, but this is a pretty good movie. Characters - This is one of few movies that have good child actors. The characters themselves are also pretty well-written. I'm not saying I like all the characters, but they are well-written and portrayed. Plot - This story is full of holes and inconsistencies. Maybe some stuff is explained in the books, I haven't read then, but very little is explained in the movies. That's not to say that the movies aren't interesting, but if you are the type of person who likes it when there are established rules in movies, avoid this franchise. Sights and Sounds - This movie looks great. Yes, there are a lot of annoying inconsistencies between shots due to a lack of a continuity department, but overall the effects and cinematography are pretty good.

assiasakim Firstly I'm not a big fan of fantasy movies but I find harry potter a very outstanding movie of all the time. I have seen it several times and each time I am enchanted by the story like my first time watching it. It is a movie full of surprises, triller and adventures that keeps you glued to you seat. I think that Harry Potter is a movie of all time and it is dedicated for all ages. I was amazed by the design and the story. The movie has a great acting. I thought that it is a must-see.
