One of the best adaptations of a book into a movie I've ever seen.

Rating: 10/10 (8 December 2001)

This is one of the best adaptations of a book into a movie that I have ever seen. The movie's quality goes deeper than that, though. The settings brought Harry's world to life beautifully. The casting was nothing less than inspired. When I saw the characters walking around I felt as though I had been transported into the book, much as Harry was transported into Tom Riddle's diary in "The Chamber of Secrets" (I can't wait for that one to come out).
I am a reader more than a movie watcher. This movie was more book than movie, may the gods be thanked.
