Great Movie!

Rating: 10/10 (21 November 2001)

Harry Potter is a terrific series of books, and the movie was a departure from them. Well and good. There was only so much time, after all. The scene with Dudley in the zoo... fabulous! Seamus blowing things up left and right... terrific! Ron was... well... Ron. Hermione was... well... believable as Hermione. Harry was... well... outclassed by his comrades. Apart and aside from that, great performances by Uncle Vernon, if you can believe it, and Hagrid. Snape also turned in a stellar performance. I'm curious how people who didn't read the books thought of the film.
