Excellent Adaptation

Rating: 9/10 (18 February 2006)

This was an excellent movie. It really was very faithful to the original book. I loved the cast. They were all perfectly cast into their proper roles. Especially Daniel Radcliffe. He is Harry Potter and I hope he stays Harry Potter for the entire Harry Potter series.
I heard that Steven Spielberg was approached to direct this film and he wanted Haley Joel Osment to play Harry. Well all I can say to that is I am glad that J.K. Rowling fought back and demanded an all British cast. If there was an American cast I think the movie would not have turned out as good as it already has. This is a great movie and I recommend it to everybody even if you aren't a Harry Potter fan.
