Fantastic tale!

Rating: 10/10 (17 November 2001)

Having just seen HP and the Philosopher's Stone, I have to say it's one of the most enjoyable films i've seen in a long while. Perhaps slightly long for a young audience, but for older watchers fantastic entertainment.
I've yet to read any of the novels, but if they're remotely as interesting as this, they must be worth a look. Fantastic casting (Robbie Coltrane steals the show, with Al Rickman at his best), excellent special effects, an interesting storyline and a huge dose of humour, this is a must-see film! Even at 9am!
