Where the story really begins

Rating: 8/10 (9 May 2003)

This is where the Harry Potter story really begins to take off. This movie is a little more horrific than the first story with some frightening visuals. Think giant spiders and snakes. The story is tight, and well told, limiting us to the world and knowledge of Harry Potter, the way it should be. Music and sound are great. Cinematography is beautiful and smooth. The acting is better that what I would expect from a film centralized around a large amount of teens and pre teens. If you saw the first, see the second. If you haven't seen the first, see them both.
