Critics and Comments

Rating: Null/10 (9 June 2004)

Overall, the movie was good but in the aspect of the story, it was awful and misleading. Several important details were missing that were very crucial to make the movie complete. The chronology of the events was intertwined and the director focused more on cinematography rather than staying close as possible from the book. The Headmaster was altered drastically, his personality and appearance were far from J.K Rowlings description and he had no longer have his powerful presence and commanding aura. There were many scenes that were unnecessary and the location of Hogwarts were also confusing and the way the director ended the movie was very lame, it should have ended on the part of the Dursley's knowing that the lunatic on the loose Sirius Black was indeed been Harry Potter's grandfather. The best rating that I could give this film is 5 out of 10.
