The boy who lived. a tale of Harry Potter

Rating: 10/10 (16 February 2008)

I saw this movie first before reading the books and walked away very impressed. The sheer imagination that came with this movie amazed me the story is wonderfully written a kids movie that does not dumb itself down to it's audience. Daniel Radcliffe's acting is a little stiff a little wooden but not overly all considering the fact that he was not a acting expert when he started he manages to do very well. Richard Harris THE man who was born to be Dumbledore I can't imagine anyone else in this role even his eventual replacement in the prisoner of azkaban does not measure up to him. And Robbie Coltrane the heart of the series his Hagrid is a joy to watch as is Emma Watson who is outstanding as Herimone Granger. This movie is a treat and deserves to be watched again and again and in years to come I'm sure it'll be labeled a Classic.
