Totally amazing...

Rating: 7/10 (4 December 2002)

The film has been (finally !) released in France today... Fan of Mrs. Rowling's books, I just came from the theater and I'm really not disappointed !! Chris Columbus has done an amazing work. The movie is very faithful to the book. Of course, some details aren't in the movie BUT the essential is here. All the fans can't complain !! This film couldn't be better. Another thing to notice is the HUGE talent of the entire cast of the movie. Daniel Radcliffe (oh my god this little boy has so much talent !), Rupert Grint and Emma Watson are completely fantastic... They've really grown up ! Tom Felton (Draco), Jason Issacs (Lucius Malfoy), Kenneth Branagh (Gilderoy Lockhart), Alan Rickman (Snape), Robbie Coltrane (Hagrid), Richard Harris (Dumbledore)... had made a great work too. They really know how to play the fabulous characters at Hogwarts. But, the most surprising was -for me- Christian Coulson, who was so amazing as Tom Marvolo Riddle.
Everything -the cast, the crew, the special effects- is much, much better than the first !! Go to see it !! NOW !! You will have a really great time.
