WOW!

Rating: Null/10 (29 November 2002)

This movie rocked. It was your classic, edge-of-your seat excitement with Harry, Hermione, Ron, Hagrid, and a scene-stealing flying car. True to the book, this movie gives the vivid details of the dreaded Chamber of Secrets and the story of Moaning Myrtle, the ghost who lives in the girls' bathroom. It also has its share of hilarity as Ron's owl flies into a bowl of chips while delivering a stern message to Ron from his mother. As a Christian, I also had to examine the morality of the film. This movie IS NOT and I repeat, IS NOT for children under the age of 10. The woman sitting next to us had to escort her screaming daughter out of the theater (I estimate she was about 5 or 6 years of age). There are too many jump scenes that can makes this scary for the younger set. The violence in this film is on the borderline of PG and PG-13. There really isn't any "witchcraft" in the film. All it is is fantasy, just like C.S. Lewis' "Chronicles of Narnia" and J.R.R. Tolkien's "The Lord of the Rings" but if it still bothers you, then don't see the film.
