Harry Potter

Rating: 6/10 (3 October 2008)

It did not take long for a book about a young wizard to turn into 7 books at 5 movies so far. And while I am not a fan of this by far, its an OK film to watch.
This movie introduces the world to Daniel Radcliffe and J.K. Rowling. Radcliffe, the protagonist of this film, is a young boy who is invited to join the wizard school Hogwarts. Though he never heard about it before, he eventually gets to join despite his family not wanting him to know about it.
It seems to be an adventure about finding out who his dead parents are and why they are dead. To a lesser extent, its about the stone hidden at the school. But that seems to be only a side adventure.
The movie moves kind of slow at several times, but the acting isn't bad. But bearing in mind the set and the limitations of the book, it did a good enough job. Though it seems that Harry always had an exception made for him.
Overall, its OK. Not great. "C+"
